About This Book

Conjunto de novelas breves que tejen retratos íntimos y melancólicos de varias mujeres, siguiendo sus vidas cotidianas, sus dolores y conmociones privadas en contextos como viajes marítimos, emigración y ambientes rurales. Las narraciones convierten lo vulgar en materia poética mediante la memoria y la imaginación, y exploran la soledad, la maternidad, la resignación y la capacidad del arte para otorgar sentido a sufrimientos modestos.
