Donde no hago pie / Where There Is No Standing by Beln Peir
Cr nica del duro proceso que sigue a la denuncia de un abuso familiar y que implica enfrentar los prejuicios de la sociedad y los obst culos de la justicia.«Contempor neo en su estilo breve y fragmentario -donde se cruzan diario, im genes, g neros y lenguajes diversos-, esta novela l rica y vertiginosa revoluciona la no ficci n en sus formas y temas . --Gabriela Cabez n C mara
Despu s de un a o sin noticias, una llamada desde la Fiscal a anuncia que, finalmente, la denuncia por abuso sexual ha sido elevada a juicio. Esa ma ana invernal comienza para la narradora otro duro proceso: encontrar representaci n legal, entender las l gicas burocr ticas de la Justicia, tejer redes de apoyo para afrontar la causa contra su t o, un comisario poderoso, y juntar coraje para reabrir un expediente que lleva al pasado familiar. Sin demagogias, Bel n L pez Peir revisa los contornos difusos de los recuerdos; ensaya respuestas al agobio de audiencias humillantes e indaga en los laberintos de los juicios por jurado. Donde no hago pie profundiza el proyecto literario de Por qu volv as cada verano, antecedente clave de miles de denuncias an nimas y otras de enorme repercusi n medi tica. Con un ritmo avasallante, esta cr nica encuentra las palabras para transformar en acci n pol tica un delito que pretend a permanecer secreto. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A chronicle of the difficult process that comes after denouncing family abuse, and that implies facing the prejudices of society and the obstacles of justice. Contemporary in its brief and fragmentary style -where diary, images, genres, and diverse languages intersect- this lyrical and vertiginous novel revolutionizes non-fiction in its forms and themes. --Gabriela Cabezon Camara After a year without any news, a call from the Prosecutor's Office announces that the complaint of sexual abuse has finally been brought to trial. That winter morning another hard process begins for the protagonist: finding legal representation, understanding the bureaucratic logic of Justice, knitting a tight support network to face the case against her uncle, a powerful town commissioner, and gather enough courage to reopen a file that will lead to the family's past. Without demagoguery, Belen Lopez Peiro reviews the blurred lines of memories; she rehearses her answers for the humiliating hearings and delves into the labyrinths of jury trials. Where There Is No Standing deepens the literary project of Why You Came Back Every Summer, a key antecedent of thousands of anonymous complaints and others of enormous media repercussion. With an overwhelming pace, this chronicle finds the words to transform a crime that was intended to remain secret into political action.
