Sometimes, their dislocation is the result of geography. Occasionally, it stems from their social conditions: consider \"Alarm,\" in which every sound and moment is skewed by the narrator's terror of her abusive partner, or \"The Transfiguration of Melina,\" whose religious teenage heroine starts the story detached from her sexuality, and ends it anything but. More often, though, Claudia's characters are simply Martians: their perspective on the world is singular, whether they want it to be or not.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eClaudia Ulloa Donoso\u003c\/b\u003e was born in Lima in 1979.
