«Amantes y enemigos» is Rosa Montero's collection of short stories about couple relationships, published by Punto de Lectura in paperback (256 pages, in Spanish).
A collection of short stories centred on the couple as a territory of pleasure and pain: carnal desire, passion, routine, desperation, happiness and hell. With humour, melancholy and unease, Rosa Montero explores the need to invent the other and the complexity of human relationships, showing their most luminous and mean-spirited side. On the cover: «El amor es una mentira pero funciona».
The collection was originally published in 1998 under the title «Amantes y enemigos. Cuentos de parejas»; the present edition is from 2001.
For readers of contemporary Spanish fiction interested in short stories and the exploration of couple relationships.
Madrid journalist and novelist, El País columnist, author of History of the Transparent King, The Cannibal's Daughter and the Bruna Husky series.
