Laura Vazquez: Die Kräfte

Reading

Is there an honest life under capitalism? This question is haunting the protagonist of Laura Vazquez’s lyrical novel «Les Forces», who is increasingly at odds with the social order. Among abandoned houses, eccentric cults, and mountain peaks, she discovers how to face this world with both emancipation and resistance. «Laura Vazquez (…) impresses with her linguistic virtuosity: every sentence is like a punchline» (Radio France).

In cooperation with TOLEDO.
