Summary

"A radical feminist text, January was the first Argentine novel to represent rape from the survivor<U+2019>s perspective and to explore the life-threatening risks pregnancy posed, in a society where abortion was both outlawed and taboo. With a narcotic musicality and voice scorched through with honesty, Gallardo hangs before us an experience that has been lived and ignored a thousand times over"--, Adapted from Amazon.com
