        			&#x201C;Marcela Serrano is Scheherazade&#x2019;s heir&#x2026;Thanks to writers like Marcela, life will never have the last word.&#x201D; &#x2014;Carlos Fuentes&#x201C;Her novels are shrewd and lucidly feminine. Reading Marcela Serrano is like peering into the eyes of all the women in the world.&#x201D; &#x2014;Arturo P&#xE9;rez-Reverte

        			Marcela Serrano is the daughter of writers and an award-winning Chilean novelist. Her debut novel We Loved So Much won the Literary Prize in Santiago. Her subsequent novels, among them The Hotel of the Sad Women and Our Lady of Loneliness, met with much success, landing her the Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz Prize and a runner-up nod in the prestigious Premio Planeta competition. She is widely considered one of the best Latin American writers working today. Ten Women is her first novel to be published in English.Originally from Inverness, Scotland, Beth Fowler earned her degree in Hispanic Studies from the University of Glasgow, including a year teaching English in Santiago, Chile. She began working as a freelance translator in 2009, and after winning the Harvill Secker Young Translators&#x2019; Prize in 2010 she began to move her focus from commercial to literary translation. Her first novel translation Open Door by Argentine writer Iosi Havillo was published in 2011. She lives near Glasgow with her husband and son.

    One Little Two Little Ten Little Chileans
  

*by B***G on 13 June 2014*









  
  
    Natasha has brought nine women together to meet each other. When the book opens, they are arriving at the institute where Natasha works in a suburb of Santiago. She watches the women arriving and watches the workmen in the garden who are in turn watching the women. We’re introduced initially to the diversity of Natasha’s visitors - young, old, tall, short, well-dressed and apparently privileged and poor country women are all delivered in the minivan that’s brought them to this place.In each chapter one woman tells about her life, how she came to have problems and how she ended up with Natasha. Some of the women are rich and their problems can seem a little superficial. Others are dirt-poor and only able to attend thanks to the generosity of their therapist and the subsidies of their well-to-do ‘sisters’.What makes the book particularly interesting - well to me, at least - is the setting in Chile and the parts that allude to the beauty and fragility of this country about which I know I know too little. I enjoyed the passages about the harshness of life under political dictatorship, and I found a lot to interest me in the diversity of the experiences related. I have a Facebook friend in Chile through whom I know more than I used to about the harsh realities of life in Chile, but this book paints a vivid picture of just how hard a place it is and has long been for women in particular.Some of the women’s problems are problems shared with others - female or male, it probably would make no difference - all over the world, whilst others are uniquely Chilean. I am blessed with not having ever had mental health issues but I can recognise many of the themes as ones common to people I know or of whom I know. As a potpourri of women’s disappointment and despair, it’s an oddly beautiful and poignant collection of stories.If I have one criticism, it’s a small one, and that’s that sometimes there doesn’t seem to be enough change of ‘voice’ between the stories. Ten women’s stories all told as if by one accent, one vocabulary and one pair of eyes. Whether that’s the original writing or the work of the translator, I can’t be sure, but it’s noticeable. And why shouldn’t the poor girls tell their stories in pretty words? Perhaps that’s the gift the author gives themThis is a hard book to read because of the despair it recounts, but also a beautiful one. If you have issues yourself, take care it doesn’t set you thinking too deeply of other people’s troubles.

    A great collection

    An eye opening account of a variety of women's lives and how they cope with difficult times. A well worth read.

    As my first audio book
  

*by M***T on 14 January 2020*









  
  
    It was easy to listen too, each of the 10 women had interesting stories to tell. However I did not think neither of them had closer and I didn’t quite get how listening to each other help them in the end.
