Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A sly and playful novel about the many faces we all have.Fifteen-year-old Berta says that beautiful things arent made for her, she isnt destined to have them, the only things she deserves are ugly. Its why her main activity, when shes not at school, is playing the prosopagnosia game standing in front of the mirror and holding her breath until she can no longer recognise her own face.Bertas mother is in her forties. By her own estimation, she is at least twenty kilos overweight, and her husband has just left her. Her whole life, she has felt a keen sense of being very near to the end of things. She used to be a cultural critic for a regional newspaper. Now she feels it is her responsibility to make her and her daughters lives as happy as possible.A man who claims to be the famous Mexican artist Vicente Rojo becomes entangled in their lives when he sees Berta faint at school and offers her the gift of a painting. This sets in motion an uncanny game of assumed and ignored identities, where the limits of what one wants and what one can achieve become blurred.
