«Clara et la pénombre» is the science fiction and suspense novel by José Carlos Somoza, published by J'ai lu in paperback (640 pages, in French).
In a future of extreme art called hyperdramatism, «human canvases» —people turned into living works— are the most sought-after product. Clara Reyes, a professional canvas, dreams of being a masterpiece. When a work by Bruno Van Tysch is destroyed, the question arises: was a teenager murdered or was a work of art annihilated?
Novel originally published in 2001 as «Clara y la penumbra», winner of the Fernando Lara Prize and the Hammett Prize. This 2006 French edition features a translation by Marianne Millon.
Recommended for readers of psychological thrillers and social science fiction, with an interest in the ethical debate around contemporary art.
