Inverness
by Pareschi, Monica
Monica Pareschi returns to fiction with a work based on the most hidden feelings, on the monstrous, glassy little things that we all harbour while we love and hate. A constellation of stories that slowly tear the soul apart, like Swarovski crystals. In these stories, there is an ancient fear in encounters with others: wrong and missed encounters, fatal encounters. Poisonous kisses. Girls with repulsive flaws. Cold and intolerable goodbyes, partly reciprocated and mistaken for eternal curses. The fine line between truly seeing each other and being horrified.
