Soñarán en el jardín
Description:
It is often said that 'the future is written' as if that would steal all hope, but it is in writing where the subversive imagination of the possible and the indomitable memory of what is on the verge of oblivion are at play. And if, for the beings that the present despises and diminishes, the future were the time of rebellion and community? In the twelve short stories that make up Soñarán en el jardín, Gabriela Damián Miravete strips fantasy, horror and speculative fiction of the funeral shroud of the irreversible in a series of windows to the unexpected and astonishing. And he does it with an insubordinate intelligence and an artisan craft of the art of storytelling. Her narrators are, like her, autonomous women who conspire to engineer machines and spells of freedom in the face of the wastelands of catastrophe. The flowers and the cats, the water and the mountain, undo with unruly words the promise of apocalypse that tries to conquer our tomorrow and take the place of the congeners, in a shared and horizontal world in which human beings are not the summit of any evolution.
