Los Divinos / The Divine

PREMIO CÓRDOBA POR LA PAZ - ANTONIO GALA DE NARRATIVA 2018
Fuimos cinco, los Tutti Frutti. Digo que fuimos cinco, y aún lo somos. Porque no ha pasado lo que podría pasar, si es cierto que ocurre.

>Los Divinos es un extraordinario ejercicio de comprensión y reinterpretación de los hechos. Un relato recóndito, vertiginoso y profundamente perturbador contra el feminicidio. En esta novela, la autora trasciende el crimen narrado para llegar, a través de él, hasta los recovecos más oscuros de toda una cultura.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A real crime that moved an entire society. A condemnation of femicide by one of the most important Spanish-language authors.

A girl's body is found floating in the water, in what seems to be a ritual. At the heart of this episode is the superficial world of some rich, successful young men who have an evil lifelong bond and are a world apart from the victim: poor, and a survivor of the violence of her homeland.

The Divine is the fictional recreation of a real crime, but above all is the most important novel by one of the best Latin American writers. A story based on one of the most shocking crimes committed in Colombia in recent history.

By the winner of the Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz Prize, Prix France Culture, Archbishop Juan de San Clemente Prize, Grinzane Cavour Prize, and the Alfaguara Novel Prize for Delirium.
