    «Una lengua que zigzaguea, vulnera la reglamentaria sintaxis, para concentrarse en fogonazo, encabalgamiento y dispersión del estilo nominal. Hacia el _ nal la prosa casi se transforma en poesía». Marta Sanz, El País Una escritora peruana en Buenos Aires rememora la historia de un accidente llamado familia. Accidente que se prolonga durante años como una herida mal cicatrizada, signo de interrogación que hurga, interpela y desfonda. Compuesta de recuerdos finamente hilados al tiempo de la intimidad, la novela se revela como un ajuste de cuentas entre una mujer y sus padres: narrativa filial con la que la escritura aspira a disipar olvidos, esparcir cenizas y...read more

Pero siempre un libro se termina.' Nominado al Premio Luces 2017 de El Comercio en la categoría Mejor libro de cuentos Aquí hay icebergs es una colección de cuentos, pero también de emociones rotas. El quiebre puede ocurrir en un paseo a la playa luego de Navidad, en el recuento de los lugares o recuerdos que construyen la memoria familiar, en un tenso café entre madre e hija, enla compañía de amigos que...read more

Con este libro nos vamos a dar cuenta de que no hay una definición única. Están quienes fusionan sus bibliotecas al casarse y quienes, al irse a convivir con otra persona, prefieren mantenerlas separadas. También hay bibliotecas 'inmateriales': libros leídos pero no acumulados, desperdigados por el universo. Y por qué no, bibliotecas separadas: una en Buenos Aires y otra en Rosario. ¿Obsesión por el orden, clasificación de las obras por género? ¿Libros que se prestan? Para festejar los quince años que cumple Ediciones Godot en febrero de 2023,...read more
