Dioses de quince años

LVI Premios Literarios Kutxa Ciudad de San Sebastián

Villamía, Fernando

A girl who has an affair with the wind; a boy who corresponds with her father dead from her; a teenager who discovers the transformative power of love and another who goes through the complex mystery of sex in her first relationship; a group of girls who, after harassing a classmate with infinite cruelty, will end up deciphering her intimate greatness. Such are some of the characters that pass through these stories. All of them are "fifteen-year-old gods", adolescents trapped in that age where the body grows too fast and the soul too slow, and arrogance meets confusion. As immortal as they are fragile, as wise as they are naive, grace visits them, but they feel miserable; they are by all accounts beautiful, but they see themselves as ugly. And they deal with that perplexity by submitting to the dictatorship of reality, but also flying where fantasy takes them.
