Aunque, a quien podria ya pedirle perdon? No tengo inclinacion a hablar con gente muerta, me espanta la posibilidad de que me respondan. Me rindo. Acepto que hay algo impudico en contar la vida de quien mantuvo su intimidad bajo llave. Asi que me aguanto. Y no pido perdon. Ni me perdono.Una carta atraviesa el oceano y trastorna la rigida estabilidad de un hogar. Se desencadena un caos fabuloso de vino, musica, risas, que va sacando a flote las heridas y frustraciones de una mujer que nunca fue la persona mas importante para nadie. Esta es su historia, la vida de la madre de la narradora.Catalina Murillo te lo cuenta al oido, te va envolviendo en esa narracion que construye con la cercania de la oralidad.

Y que sera.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONCosta Ricas 2024 National Literature AwardA hundred years ago, she would have been considered a lovelorn woman. Today, she is a medicated woman.Please forgive me for what Im about to say. But I wonder, whom should I ask for that forgiveness? Im not one to talk to dead people; Im too afraid they might answer. I give up. I accept that theres something improper about telling the story of someone who kept their intimacy under lock and key. So, Ill push on. And I wont ask for forgiveness. Or forgive myself. A letter crosses the ocean and upends the stable order of a household. A fabulous chaos ensues, a flood of wine, music and laughter that channels the hurt and frustration of a woman who was never anyones top priority. That woman is the narrators mother. Catalina Murillo engrosses the reader in a narrative that has the intimacy of a story read aloud. In so doing, she reveals herself to be a powerful storyteller who turns a personal account into a collective experience. Heart and mind, humor and pain. Major themes emerge, without drama or cynicism: the mother-daughter relationship, childhood, and the eternal question: What is love? Or better, what was it? And what will it be?
