Electrodomésticos

A Short Story

By: Moira McCavana

Narrated by: Roberto Prado

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.

Liked very much

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

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.

Wtf?

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

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.

Do You Speak Spanish??

The narrator speaks English but the characters speak Spanish. WHY???? Did it say this anywhere???? Useless to non Spanish speakers!

Can you say "inane?"

If I were offered $10,000 to do it I could not possibly write a story more inane than this one. It had nothing! What was the point?

Time Wasted

I have nothing to say. I think it's one of those I should of bypassed.

I need a little better clue

I feel like I was dropped off the edge of town with not a clue, I missed a whole lot of something, need to read again .

Weird pointless story!

Easy to listen to.. but was pointless without any ending? just hmmmm... thirteen, fourteen, fifteen...
