En la celda había una luciérnaga

A family that must fight against a plague of weasels. A magical forest that does not want anyone to visit it. A girl locked up all night in a neighborhood supermarket. A labor crime because of a can of Coca-Cola. A ghost condemned to be forever young is bored drinking milkshakes and fearing visitors to his house. A call offering to extend life insurance coverage to include suicide. A firefly that gives heat and illuminates the cell in which two lovers are found. The strange shines. We are all defined by how we react to the strange. We all follow even more human behaviors, tenderness and panic, love and disgust, when faced with the strange. Julia Viejo, a kind of Ana María Matute of the millennial generation, knows how to detect, and also invent, what is strange in the world to explain to us how we are.
