Summary

Crónica del duro proceso que sigue a la denuncia de un abuso familiar  y que implica enfrentar los prejuicios de la sociedad y los obstáculos de la justicia.

«Contemporáneo en su estilo breve y fragmentario -donde se cruzan  diario, imágenes, géneros y lenguajes diversos-, esta novela lírica y  vertiginosa revoluciona la no ficción en sus formas y temas». —Gabriela Cabezón Cámara

Después de un año sin noticias, una llamada desde la Fiscalía anuncia  que, finalmente, la denuncia por abuso sexual ha sido elevada a juicio.  Esa mañana invernal comienza para la narradora otro duro proceso:  encontrar representación legal, entender las lógicas burocráticas de la  Justicia, tejer redes de apoyo para afrontar la causa contra su tío, un  comisario poderoso, y juntar coraje para reabrir un expediente que lleva al pasado familiar.

Sin demagogias, Belén López Peiró revisa los contornos difusos de  los recuerdos; ensaya respuestas al agobio de audiencias humillantes e indaga en los laberintos de los juicios por jurado.

Donde no hago pie profundiza el proyecto literario de Por  qué volvías cada verano, antecedente clave de miles de denuncias anónimas y otras de enorme repercusión mediática. Con un ritmo avasallante, esta crónica encuentra las palabras para transformar en acción política un delito que pretendía permanecer secreto.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A chronicle of the difficult process that comes after denouncing family abuse, and that implies facing the prejudices of society and the obstacles of justice.
 
“Contemporary in its brief and fragmentary style -where diary, images, genres, and diverse languages ​​intersect- this lyrical and vertiginous novel revolutionizes non-fiction in its forms and themes.” —Gabriela Cabezon Camara

After a year without any news, a call from the Prosecutor's Office announces that the complaint of sexual abuse has finally been brought to trial. That winter morning another hard process begins for the protagonist: finding legal representation, understanding the bureaucratic logic of Justice, knitting a tight support network to face the case against her uncle, a powerful town commissioner, and gather enough courage to reopen a file that will lead to the family’s past.
 
Without demagoguery, Belen Lopez Peiro reviews the blurred lines of memories; she rehearses her answers for the humiliating hearings and delves into the labyrinths of jury trials.
 
Where There Is No Standing deepens the literary project of Why You Came Back Every Summer, a key antecedent of thousands of anonymous complaints and others of enormous media repercussion. With an overwhelming pace, this chronicle finds the words to transform a crime that was intended to remain secret into political action.
