Amor Eterno

Once you start reading Amor Eterno you may be tempted to devour it all at once. My advice is take your time, savor each and every word. Patricia Preciado Martin's eleven short stories read like poetry and conjure up vivid and touching images of loves lost, forgotten, unrequited, and eternal. She has an insider's sensitivity to Mexican culture and an expert command of English that allows her to turn her "cuentos" into universal experiences. Now I want to read all of her books.
