Bird Skeletons and other stories.

Through a deep gaze, these stories address female self-pity, the hating childhood and the tragedy of a badly agreed marriage. There is an exploration of the human abysses that are hidden in details of daily life: a boat trip, a visit to the doctor or the social pressures that are given in the name of friendship and the great values.«The reader will decide whether the man who intends to rebel against marital oppression with insignificant actions, the gray woman who changes her dignity for a little calmness, the one who cheats and refocuses on the ignorance of her partner, or the strange human animal that subdues to the same extent that he writhes of loneliness, they are worthy of mercy or contempt. However, here and there also appears light, humor. Even love.»

Alejandro Juárez
