Paula Marabot

The Word as a Scalpel

Paula Marabot, escritora española de narrativa contemporánea.

I do not write to provide answers, but to discomfort with the right questions. My contemporary narrative ventures into the territories we prefer to ignore: the weight of silence following a loss, the search for identity in a world that insists on labeling us, and the fragility of those walking the fine line of exclusion. I understand writing as a relentless exercise to dissect reality, stripping it of all artifice until reaching its core.

Above all, I am interested in exploring how human beings react when they leave their comfort zone; it is in that exact moment of vulnerability where who we truly are is revealed. Therefore, in my texts you will find an objective, raw gaze upon the human condition. There are no concessions to gratuitous sentimentalism; only the echo of painful realities, transformed into stories that explore the resilience of women, the drama of invisibility, and the true cost of survival.

If you are looking for a read that leaves you unscathed, I am probably not your author. If you dare to look at the truth hidden beneath the surface of the everyday, I invite you in.

STANDING TALL

Who decides how much space you are entitled to?

​

Andrea is thirteen, diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder, and overweight. While she struggles with the storms of puberty, time is running out against her: her mother is terminally ill and desperately trying—in a race against the clock—to prepare her for an independent life. But a family secret, guarded for years, comes to light at the worst possible moment, threatening to shake the foundations of Andrea's destiny and those of the characters in her universe.

 

With a cinematic narrative pace, unfiltered harshness, and sharp humor, Paula Marabot dissects the cracks in our coexistence—from architectural barriers to the superficiality of the social media world.
