«La mujer zurda» is the contemporary fiction novel by Peter Handke, published by Alianza in paperback (120 pages, in Spanish).
The novel delves into the breakup of a couple and the crisis of a woman who, instead of escaping, seeks her independence in daily routine. Unable to communicate with those around her, the protagonist lives alongside others without ever connecting: dialogues become parallel monologues that reveal her solitude and anguish.
It belongs to the collection El Libro de Bolsillo - Bibliotecas de Autor - Biblioteca Handke (number 827). Translation by Eustaquio Barjau Riu; original work: «Die linkshändige Frau» (1976).
A read for adults interested in contemporary European narrative and psychological portraits of solitude and lack of communication.
Peter Handke is an Austrian novelist, playwright, translator, poet, film director, and screenwriter. He was awarded the 2019 Nobel Prize in Literature "for an influential work that with linguistic ingenuity has explored the periphery and the specificity of human experience." Handke is considered to be one of the most influential and original German-language writers in the second half of the 20th century.
