«Ciencias naturales» is the novel by Spanish writer Rosa Chacel, published by Seix Barral in paperback (235 pages, in Spanish).
The action is set in a time of exile and uprootedness: characters adrift after losing their roots, in a freedom that never quite fulfills. Chacel avoids autobiographical tracing and with rigorous prose explores the daily life of exile and the wounds of return. Written at the age of ninety, it is a testament to her vitality and mastery of language.
The novel closes Chacel's narrative cycle formed by «Barrio de Maravillas», «Acrópolis» and «Ciencias naturales». It was published in 1988 as a first edition, within the Biblioteca Breve collection.
For readers interested in twentieth-century Spanish fiction and exile literature.
