«Arrivederci Piccole Donne» is the novel by Marcela Serrano published by Feltrinelli Traveller in 2004, in paperback, with 238 pages, in Italian.
Four Chilean cousins raised in the shadow of «Mujercitas» reunite in 2002 after lives scattered across the world. The narrative interweaves family memory with historical episodes such as the 1973 coup in Chile, exile in London, Paris and the impact of 9/11, and portrays with subtlety the female bonds and the wounds of a generation.
The work was originally published as «Hasta siempre, mujercitas»; this Italian edition, translated by Michela Finassi Parolo, appeared in 2004 within the I Narratori collection.
For those seeking contemporary fiction about female bonds, historical memory and nuanced female characters.
Marcela Serrano is a Chilean novelist. In 1994, her first novel, Para que no me olvides, won the Literary Prize in Santiago, and her second book, Nosotras que nos queremos tanto, won the Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz Prize for women writers in Spanish. She received the runner-up award in the renowned Premio Planeta competition in 2001 for her novel Lo que está en mi corazón. Carlos Fuentes has quoted her description of the modern woman as "having the capacity to change skin like a snake, freeing herself from the inevitability and servitude of more obsolete times."
