Notas Desde El Interior de Una Ballena / Notes from Inside a Whale [Spanish]

«Ser hija es andar en sentido contrario; es huir en direcci n contraria al destino sin saber que con nuestra huida estamos dando cumplimiento al vaticinio.

La protagonista de esta novela regresa a casa luego de mucho tiempo, para descubrir que su madre ya no volvi en s despu s de una cirug a. Ante la imposibilidad de una reconciliaci n, ella deber confrontar consigo misma los silencios que se tejieron entre ambas y restaurar por medio de la escritura el v nculo deteriorado por sus ausencias.

En este relato ntimo y conmovedor, compuesto por notas, estampas, memorias y citas, hay un profundo an lisis de la compleja relaci n de una hija con su madre, el amor, los desencuentros y las tensiones que desbordan el lenguaje. Un aut ntico viaje al interior de la ballena m tica que, como en el relato de Jon s, devora a la protagonista en su huida para llevarla a los abismos de la muerte, el duelo y el desasosiego, donde se pone de manifiesto que en ocasiones es necesario desobedecer los mandatos para elegir un camino distinto al establecido.

«Una voz vibrante y singular, aliada con una extraordinaria madurez t cnica y una fascinante densidad simb lica. -Irene Vallejo

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"Being a daughter is going against the flow. It is running away in the opposite direction of fate without knowing that, by fleeing, we might be fulfilling that very prophecy."

The protagonist returns home after a long time, to find that her mother never regained consciousness after surgery. Given the impossibility of reconciliation, she must face within herself those intertwined silences between the two and restore their bond, broken by her absence, through her writing.

In this intimate and moving tale, composed of notes, prints, memoirs, and quotes, there is a deep analysis of the complex relationship between mothers and daughters, of the love, disagreements, and tensions that exceed language. An authentic journey inside the mythical whale that--as in the tale of Jonah--devours the protagonist in her escape, taking her to the abyss of death, grief, and disquiet, where it becomes clear that, on occasion, it is necessary to disobey and follow other than the set path.

"A vibrant, singular voice, allied with an extraordinary mature technique and a fascinating, symbolic density." --Irene Vallejo
