So Far, So Good
CANDAYA, 2025, 192 p. LITERARY FICTION, Spanish
A reflection on the drive towards violence, cruelty and the limits of intimacy.
A powerful and uncompromising debut novel that delves into the desire to live a life that is not banal, that dares to cross boundaries.
A young woman arrives at an artist residency to escape a creative block or, perhaps, to escape herself, her life, her surroundings. What should have been a creative, stimulating experience turns, through a brief moment of openness to chaos, into a series of disturbances that bring her closer to the abyss within herself and others. Determined not to let her life be banal and interchangeable, she believes she has found in art a legitimate means of transgression to test the boundaries of ethics, the body and relationships.
In So Good, So Far, Estela Sanchis’s first novel, there is a profound reflection on the drive for violence and cruelty, on unhealthy bonds of dependence and the limits of intimacy, on fiction and manipulation.
Original Title
Hasta aquí todo va bien.
En Babelia – El País, 11 de julio de 2025 “Una historia muy afilada cuyo personaje principal comparte nombre con la autora, es una novela exigente sobre los límites de la verdad y la pérdida del miedo a lo brutal: una ficción sobre maldad, belleza y morbosidad en una residencia de artistas.”
