A former FARC guerilla fighter adjusts to urban life and faces the new violence of an editor co-opting her experiences. A woman adrift in the city she left as a child looks for someone to care for, even if it has to be by force, while another documents a flea infestation with a catalog of the marks on her flesh. A little girl copes with her anxiety about the adult world by exacting revenge on her nanny, who she thinks belongs to her. Combining humor, heartbreak, and unexpected violence, Ospina constructs a keen reflection on the body as a simultaneous vehicle of connection and alienation in vibrant, gleaming prose.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Featherheart Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52625145299168,"sku":"9781566896108","price":3050.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0772\/4987\/2096\/files\/9781566896108.jpg?v=1778666267","url":"https:\/\/featherheartbooks.com\/ja\/products\/variations-on-the-body","provider":"Featherheart Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
