Almudena Vidorreta builds a poetic journey that travels from the birth of a daughter to the loss of children who never arrive, exploring the fragility, pain, and strength that transform the body and identity. With elegant and precise writing, the author turns personal experience into a mirror where the jungle of the world is reflected through the wound and the scar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe work is structured as a journey through different stages of motherhood, from the hope and birth of the first daughter to the awareness of the fragility that illness brings. Through a poetic voice that travels through cities like New York, Havana, Buenos Aires, and Madrid, the book addresses miscarriage, the mourning of absence, and the feeling that life grants no respite.
