Produktbeschreibung
Béatrice, a solitary young jazz singer from a genteel Parisian suburb, meets a mysterious woman named Polina, who visits her at night and whispers in her ear: "There are people who leave their bodies and their bodies go on living without them. These people are named Natasha." César, a lonely Mexican actor, receives the opportunity of a lifetime: a role as a serial killer on a French TV series. But as he prepares for the audition, he finds himself falling in love with the psychopath he is to play. Step by step, Béatrice and César are drawn into a labyrinth of visions and warnings, haunted by a group of young women who all share the same name: Natasha. A startlingly original novel that recalls the unsettling visual worlds of Cindy Sherman and David Lynch and the writing of Angela Carter and Haruki Murakami, The Natashas establishes Yelena Moskovich as one of the most exciting young writers of her generation.

Rezensionen
A brave, original work... Moskovich's prose radiates with heat... written in a Cubist jumble of voices, languages, and textures, The Natashas reads as if one were spinning a radio dial of the world... [it] urges the reader to sink back in, connect, breathe. Lauren Elkin Financial Times
