Description
A Broken Mirror by Mercè Rodoreda is a novel that shatters the illusion of a perfect reflection. Spanning three generations and six decades, it presents a kaleidoscopic family history, reflecting on events both intimate and historic, including the Spanish Civil War. The story unfolds through brilliant fragments, shifting perspectives and angles, as Teresa Goday's life becomes intertwined with that of her family. From the prosperous Barcelona of the 1870s to the advent of the Franco dictatorship, this novel is a richly articulated mosaic of life, ultimately revealing the inexorable passing of time. Through its fragmented narrative, A Broken Mirror offers a nuanced exploration of the human experience, one that is both deeply personal and universally relatable.
