| Synopsis | The unexpected death of a friend triggers this novel-tapestry, where various times, stories, conversations and trips are interwoven. This is a story of growth, of the imbalances of identity and the adolescent body. Punto de cruz narrates the becoming of adults in a society crossed by sexist, classist, racist and environmental violence. For the protagonists of this book, friendship becomes the main tool of care, meaning, reparation and resistance. Friendship and embroidery, that activity in which women from hundreds of cultures and times found oppression, repression, freedom, community and art at the same time. This novel is also a travel chronicle or a chronicle about the effect of travel on one's own and collective identity; it is a beautiful portrait of the relationships between women, how we choose them, what affections continue to accompany us and what others choose paths that separate us forever. |
