Project

In the Faber Residence I want to start the draft of Mar de tierra, first part of Oleaje o la memoria del silencio.

The novel tries to explore, through three generations of women of the same family, the silence as part of a baggage that had to make their to survive to a pain that could not be shown in public; and as that pain was anchored so much inside, that it has been dragged without cicatrizing of generation in generation. Just like the remains of a boat that comes from distant storms and that we think does not belong to us, but that so much so, is part of our history.
