Description

Eartheater A Novel by Dolores Reyes is a powerful and thought-provoking literary debut that explores the dark tragedies of ordinary lives. In this electrifying novel, a young woman's compulsion to eat earth gives her visions of murdered and missing people, drawing her into an unlikely relationship with a withdrawn police officer.

As she navigates this surreal and haunting world, the woman uncovers the horrifying truth about her mother's death, and begins to use her unique gift to help desperate members of her community uncover the truth about their own loved ones. With its spare yet complex prose, Eartheater is a darkly resonant tale told from a feminist perspective that sheds light on the stories of those left behind.

Translated from the Spanish by Julia Sanches, this novel is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in magical realism and the human experience.
