Trece Años de Blanca (Periscopio) (in Spanish)
Agustín Fernández Paz
Synopsis "Trece Años de Blanca (Periscopio) (in Spanish)"
At the age of thirteen, Blanca catches hepatitis which means that she is bed bound for two whole months. To entertain herself and encouraged by her mother, she begins to put together a photo album. The photos remind her of forgotten images which enable her to recall her entire life: the experiences she lived during her childhood, relationships with relatives, her friends, the discovery of feelings as crucial as love, fears and uncertainties... This is an excellent portrait of an adolescent girl, drawn up with great sensitivity and psychological penetration, and written in the author’s simple and purified style. This is a story full of authenticity and tenderness, and besides, its original construction in the shape of a puzzle stirs up the interest of the reader and encourages them to continue reading so as to complete the character’s universe.
