Electrodomésticos

A Short Story

Electrodomésticos is an elegant yet powerful depiction of the post Spanish Civil War era, where class divisions lay bare those who can afford to eat a decent meal and those who can not. Josu is an inexperienced electrician, tasked with installing an oven in the home of an upper-class Basque couple. He’s completely captivated. But the couple, though they seem to have it all, are in a prison of their own. Mesmerizing in its subtlety and sinister intimations, Electrodomésticos reveals the poverty and loneliness of this era.

Didn’t make any sense

I just don’t know what this was about…or what the point was. Was he a stalker? Did he long to belong to a different family? I just don’t get it.

Liked very much

Very interesting and easy to follow story line. I enjoyed very much . Send more of same.

Lost in translation…

I believe that in order to understand the story I would have to know more about Spain’s history and the situation with the Vasque population. I also think that a lot was lost in translation as it seems to me the original story was written in Spanish.

Wtf?

I don't even know what to say about this story. But whatever I come up with, it won't be very flattering.

It was so interesting in such a short amount of time

I liked how short & quick it told the story & also the going back & forth to understand the different perspective I do recommend if u just want a short story!
