Larvas

The most innovative voice in current Uruguayan literature. Twenty-four years that have already given rise to a vibrant writing that is beginning to be recognized throughout the continent. Larvas is Tamara’s third book, after an impressive debut, Natural Disasters and the short novel Whale Season, it is a leap towards the unusual where everything seems to be what it is not, until a dead mare appears before us or the dogs that keep us company become our witnesses and executioners or the larvae emerge from the most intimate part of our body. Under a prism of the unusual, Tamara’s stories are a drift towards the fantastic because perhaps it is precisely there where our reality has its explanation and its ultimate consequences.
