2Después de la exitosa Permafrost, Boulder es la segunda novela del tríptico donde Eva Baltasar explora la voz, la vida y el cuerpo de tres mujeres.

La protagonista de Boulder se gana la vida como cocinera en un viejo barco mercante. Es la situación perfecta: soledad, una cabina, el océano, algún puerto en el que conocer mujeres y horas para encarar el vacío, para sentir la fuerza de la provisionalidad. Hasta que un día una de ellas consigue que abandone el mar, acceda a vivir entre cuatro paredes y se implique en la gestación asistida y en la educación de un hijo. Qué ha hecho la maternidad con la mujer que en su día conoció en un bar de la Patagonia? Qué hará ella, animal enjaulado en una casa unifamiliar de Reikiavik?
Todo ha cambiado excepto su apodo, Boulder: esas enormes piedras aisladas en medio del paisaje, expuestas a todo sin que nadie sepa de dónde vienen ni porque están ahí.

Después de la exitosa Permafrost, esta es la segunda novela del tríptico donde Baltasar explora la voz, la vida y el cuerpo de tres mujeres.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

After the great success of Permafrost, Boulder is the second novel in the three-part series where Eva Baltasar explores the voice, life, and body of three women.

The protagonist earns a living as a cook on an old merchant ship. It is the perfect scenario for her: solitude, a cabin, the ocean, ports in which to meet women, and endless hours to be alone with emptiness, to feel the force of what is provisional. Until one day one of them convinces her to leave the sea, to change all of it to live confined within four walls, to a pregnancy assisted by IVF, and rearing a child. What has motherhood done with the woman she once met at a bar in Patagonia? What is she going to do, a caged animal in a single-family house in Reykjavik?

Everything has changed except for her nickname, Boulder: those huge isolated rock forms in the middle of landscapes, exposed to all the elements without anyone knowing where they came from or why they are there.
