"En plena dictadura chilena, un angustiado hombre llega a las oficinas de una revista de oposición. Es un agente de la policía secreta. Quiero hablar, dice, y una periodista prende su grabadora para escuchar un testimonio que abrirá las puertas de una dimensión hasta entonces desconocida. Siguiendo la hebra de esta escena real, Nona Fernández activa los mecanismos de la imaginación para acceder a aquellos rincones donde la memoria y los archivos no han podido llegar. ... Las historias de La dimensión desconocida, dice la narradora, 'siempre han estado pisándome los talones. Nací con ellas incorporadas en un álbum familiar que no elegí ni organicé.' Como en un episodio de aquella vieja serie televisiva, Nona Fernández construye un relato a partir de la mala conciencia de un personaje insondable, exponiendo e iluminando esa zona de locura y extravío que está mucho más cerca de lo que pensamos y que puede hacer de un ser humano una bestia."--Back cover. "In the midst of the Chilean dictatorship, an anguished man arrives at the office of an opposition journal. He is an agent of the secret police. He wants to talk, he says, and a reporter takes her recorder to listen to a testimony that will open the doors to a previously unknown dimension. Following the thread of this real scene, Nona Fernández activates the workings of the imagination to access those corners that memory and archives haven't been able to reach. ... The stories in La dimensión desconocida [The Unknown Dimension], says the narrator, 'have always been right on my heels. I was born with them integrated into a family album that I neither chose nor organized.' Like in an episode of that old television series, Nona Fernández constructs a tale starting from the bad conscience of an unfathomable character, exposing and illuminating that zone of madness and deviance that is much closer than we think and that can make a human being into a beast."--Back cover; cataloger's translation.
