Clarisse Rivière lleva una doble vida: mientras mantiene una existencia burguesa con su marido y su hija, cada mes visita en secreto a su madre, Ladivine, en un barrio popular de Burdeos. Clarisse, que en realidad se llama Malinka, oculta sus orígenes y reniega de su pasado, pero las mentiras que ha construido para protegerse comienzan a desmoronarse. Esta poderosa novela explora temas de identidad, pertenencia y los secretos familiares que marcan a tres generaciones. La obra, escrita por Marie NDiaye, es un relato profundo sobre la lucha interna por aceptar las propias raíces y la compleja relación entre una madre y su hija. A través de una narrativa envolvente, la autora nos sumerge en una historia de redención y autodescubrimiento donde el pasado siempre termina por alcanzar al presente.
