«For the first time, a novel that deals with adoption. A beautiful mixture of poetry, stories and a novel, written with exquisite sensitivity. The best kind of fiction.» R. Ruiz Garzón, Qué Leer

«Nuria Barrios never relinquishes the issues that have always been at the heart of her work: the female body and its transformations, and the basic functions of nature that shape human life. But in this book she adopts a more personal, original style – naive, innocent and yet subtle language, highly appropriate to the occasion, in which words, like birds, fly. The most surprising events acquire the simplicity of everyday life and one is made to think that miracles are possible.» Lluís Satorras, El País
