"Maldeniña es una novela conmovedora, repleta de frases que iluminan tanto la ternura como el dolor del abandono, frases en las que uno querría quedarse a vivir". Mónica Ojeda
Maldeniña se sitúa en un pueblo minúsculo, que "no es más que dos hileras de casas como dientes torcidos en la boca de un loco, un pueblo querido a ratos, que no existe en el mapa", un pueblo en el que no pasa nada más que una carretera, con sus camiones y forasteros. Este pueblo y sus habitantes son testigos de la soledad de Isa. En la habitación del hotel ruinoso en la que vive con Papá, Isa hace recortes y dibujos de la casa que desearía compartir con él, pero Papá cada día está más ausente. No la mira, no la mima. Mientras, ella hace mandados, ayuda con el quehacer, evita a su tía José -quien parece querer llenar su vacío con ella-, aguanta un dolor de barriga y, sobre todo, espera a Papá. En esta novela, los silencios se convierten en un canto a la desolación, al desamparo, a la rareza de sus personajes y al lenguaje. Lorena Salazar Masso vuelve a conmover e impactar a través de una historia potente y una prosa poética y diáfana, llena de candor, desgarro y delicadeza. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Maldeniña is set in a tiny town, "two rows of houses arranged like crooked teeth in the mouth of a lunatic, a town that is loved some of the time and does not appear on any map," a stopping-off point on the highway for truckers and strangers who are just passing through. This town and its inhabitants are the witnesses to Isa's solitude. In the rundown hotel room where she lives with her father, Isa cuts out clippings and makes sketches of the dream house she would like to share with him, but he seems more absent every day. Her father no longer looks at nor takes care of her. Isa busies herself with errands and housework, trying to avoid the clutches of Aunt José - who sees the girl as a way to fill her own empty life - ignore her stomachaches and, most of all, wait for her father to come home. In this novel, silence becomes a hymn of desolation, oddness and abandonment, standing in for language. Lorena Salazar Masso touches readers once again with her powerful storytelling and poetic and diaphanous prose, full of candor, anguish and delicacy.
