There is a dreamlike stillness to the entire book, with a third of the pages devoid of any words, large airy panels, twenty-three full-page panels, twelve double-page panels, and Borja Gonzalez's trademark absence of facial features for the characters (no mouth, nose, eyes).

From the publisher:

An indeterminate era that resembles the Middle Ages... A castle slowly eaten away by nature...

Between concealed jealousies and family resentments, the women wait for the return of the men, who have gone hunting. Above all, they are waiting for a ritual sacrifice.

The sacrifice of Matilde to the ancient god of the hunt.

However, Teresa absolutely adores her little sister Matilda and intends to help her escape from the castle.

A dark tale, mixing horror story and denunciation of female oppression and enhanced with a touch of fantasy.

Resume:

Une époque indéterminée qui ressemble au Moyen ge... Un château lentement rongé par la nature...

Entre jalousie larvées et rancoeurs familiales, les femmes attendent le retour des hommes, partis à la chasse. Elles attendent surtout un sacrifice rituel.

Le sacrifice de Matilde, auquel sa soeur Teresa tente la faire échapper.

Un conte noir, entremêlant récit d'horreur et dénonciation de l'oppression féminine et relevé d'une touche de fantastique.
