«Lo que hace cien a?os era una mujer enamorada, hoy es una mujer medicada .
Pido perd?n por lo que a continuaci?n voy a relatar, pregunto. Aunque, a qui?n podr?a ya pedirle perd?n? No tengo inclinaci?n a hablar con gente muerta, me espanta la posibilidad de que me respondan. Me rindo. Acepto que hay algo imp?dico en contar la vida de quien mantuvo su intimidad bajo llave. As? que me aguanto. Y no pido perd?n. Ni me perdono.
Please forgive me for what I'm about to say. But I wonder, whom should I ask for that forgiveness? I'm not one to talk to dead people; I'm too afraid they might answer. I give up. I accept that there's something improper about telling the story of someone who kept their intimacy under lock and key. So, I'll push on. And I won't 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 anyone's top priority. That woman is the narrator's 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?
