What Life Brings

Maite Carranza

"Masterful evidence of literature’s power to not only entertain but also serve as a mirror that reflects and denounces a very cruel and relevant reality."

A middle-class family, comprised of a mother and her two children, can’t make ends meet and gets evicted from their home. This tragic event is inevitably dramatic, yet the author also imbues the characters and the setting with a strength and hope that shines through in many moments of the novel.
