Una grieta en la noche

There are books in which it is better not to open a crack at night. This is one of them. Leaning out can be falling into the void, where families are not safe spaces, the streets end up being a loop, nightmares return to remind us why they are here and not even brotherly ties are known in depth. To lean out is to be in front of an extraordinary storyteller, a revolution in Mexican writing, lit by candles and pyrotechnics, fueled by boxing blows and feline bites, populated by missing persons, narco-satanics or lovers. If reading is always rushing, reading Laura Baeza is immersing oneself in emptiness and darkness at the same time. Open a crack under her feet.
