Las niñas prodigio
A semi-autobiographical novel, stirred by the stigma of an amour fou for an older, alcoholic man, The Prodigy Girls is also a comedy in several acts, and a tale with hints of gothic horror. But above all, it is a contemporary story about identity that begins in an imperfect present and passes back through all the ages of a woman. This work is "the reason why I read the novels of my contemporaries: to discover in narrative what is real in us and our longing for ourselves." El Cultural, in El Mundo. "Sabina Urraca has invented a new genre: an autofiction more addictive than Netflix." Marta Delatte. "Talent in abundance." ABC Cultural. "In a strange way, it is a sordid and luminous novel. […] there is an untameable honesty in it." EÑE. REVISTA PARA LEER
