Argentina’s interior voice – an interview with author Selva Almada
30-05-2026 05:21 Between echoes returning from the past and a language that breathes the brush and the river, Selva Almada’s new novel 'Una casa sola' (Random House) creates a universe in which memory, violence and poetry intertwine in a richly layered narrative. In this interview, the author traces the novel’s fragmentary origins, its connection to poetry and the gauchesca tradition, so-called ‘provincial’ literature and why writing is a living organism rather than just technique.
