Aura by Carlos Fuentes

Aura by Carlos Fuentes

A young historian answers a strange job advertisement and is hired by an elderly widow to organise her late husband's papers, in a decaying Mexico City house where the widow's beautiful young niece, Aura, seems to share an uncanny, unexplained connection to her aged aunt.

Fuentes writes the entire novella in the unusual second person, drawing the reader directly into the historian's growing disorientation as the boundaries between the widow, Aura and time itself begin dissolving, in a work of concentrated Gothic magical realism that rewards careful, attentive reading.

A landmark short novel of Latin American magical realism, formally daring and genuinely unsettling.
