Luisa Castro constructs a work where the past is not nostalgia, but a living territory that interrogates the present. With a voice that oscillates between displacement and the search for certainties, the author explores the solitude of the body, silence, and language as liberation. A poetic journey into the heart of an ancient love, one that exists even before memories.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe collection revolves around the bond with one's parents, especially the paternal figure, and the ever-present shadow of the mother—two people who merge into a single form of love. The work moves away from nostalgia to delve into displacement and the question of belonging: \"I cannot know \/ what it means to be from this land.\" Between a body that does not love itself and the silence that arises when finding a place where one still speaks, the author proposes poetry as an attempt to touch the nerve of the language that binds us and sets us free.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eFilial love and the memory of parents as the origin of identity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eDisplacement and the search for belonging to a place or a language.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe solitude of the body and the difficulty of self-love.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eSilence as a language and words as a tool for liberation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eOvercoming nostalgia to inhabit the present through the certainties of the past.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor readers of contemporary poetry interested in works that explore memory, family bonds, and identity from an intimate and reflective perspective.
