"How many people can fit in an apartment when its three inhabitants are confined? How many languages if one of them is just learning to speak? How many characters if one of the three is a novelist? Twenty, Twenty-One narrates five seasons in the life of a small bilingual family adapting to the "normal newness", and portrays the peculiar language that they build together and locked up: a language destined to disappear. Time and time again, this book reminds us that, when looked at, the everyday is extraordinary." -- Back cover.
