ENGLISH DESCRIPTION THE ENSHRINEMENT OF ONE OF THE GREATEST SURPRISES IN LATIN AMERICAN LITERATURE.
By the author of Eartheater, "a reading revelation" (Babelia) and one of the best books of the year according to The New York Times, El Pa s, and El Cultural, translated into twelve languages.
"Dolores Reyes' narrative is intense and pressing, but it is also inscribed in the most powerful tradition of fantasy and crime fiction, all the while considering gender violence with immense lucidity." --Mariana Enr quez
"I had sworn never to eat earth again, and now it burns my tongue, and my stomach roars demanding. The earth is full of secrets, but not for me."
Eartheater has made two choices: moving to a new neighborhood and not using her prophetic powers ever again. Surrounded by strangers, little by little, she leaves her confinement and learns to handle herself in this new environment while waiting for her nephew's birth, the son of her brother Walter and his girlfriend, Misery. It is precisely the latter who, seeing a profitable economic potential in Eartheater's gift, encourages her to restore the visions that allowed her to find missing people. To do so, she must solve recent and old cases, reveal secrets of her family history, and put her life in the hands of a witch more powerful than she. Eartheater thinks she can trust no one but Miss Ana, who guides and advises Eartheater in her dreams. But, she soon will discover that she now has new friends and an unconditional ally--Misery.
