A young woman in Buenos Aires spies three women in the house opposite
her family’s home. Intrigued, she begins to watch them. She imagines
them as accomplices to an unknown crime, as troubled spinsters
contemplating suicide, or as players in an affair with dark and
mysterious consequences. Lange’s imaginative excesses and almost
hallucinatory images make this uncanny exploration of desire, domestic
space, voyeurism and female isolation a twentieth-century masterpiece.
Too long viewed as Borges’s muse, Lange is today recognised in the
Spanish-speaking world as a great writer and is here translated into
English for the first time, to be read alongside Virginia Woolf,
Clarice Lispector and Marguerite Duras.
