Old Rosa is a novel in two stories as the title states, so I’m counting this selection for two slots on my list. I recall being profoundly moved upon first reading this book. It was like putting my foot in the river and getting pulled in and rushed along with the current – hard to stop. The stories are harsh in their reality, and ultimately, they are dreamlike and disturbing. Another to reread over time.
