The Divorce - César Aira
The Divorce - César Aira
Translated by Chris Andrews
This slim novella begins with something ordinary (a couple separating) and then calmly wanders somewhere else entirely. The mundane tilts into the surreal without warning.
It's a bit about art, a bit about vanity, storytelling and the strange theatre of social life. Aira’s sentences feel effortless but slippery; just when you think you understand what the book is about, it changes register.
It’s playful, clever, and slightly destabilising perfect for readers who like fiction that behaves unpredictably and refuses to sit still.
