Hot Milk

by Deborah Levy

In the arid coastal landscapes of southern Spain, Sofia, a young and disenchanted anthropologist, accompanies her mother, Rose, in a desperate quest to cure her enigmatic illness. As they pin their last hopes on the unconventional treatments of Dr. Gomez, Sofia embarks on her own investigation, a personal odyssey seeking answers to her mother's perplexing condition. 'Hot Milk' weaves a narrative rich with the complexities of familial duty, the burden of care, and the awakening of deep-seated desires. Through Sofia's eyes, readers are plunged into a story of self-discovery ignited by the mysteries of the human body and spirit, exploring themes of mythology, sexuality, and the quest for identity against the ephemeral backdrop of the Spanish shore.
