aquรญ algo que escribiรณ querida myriam sobre ๐๐๐ง๐ฉ๐ ๐๐ก๐ฉ๐๐ง๐จ:
<<At some point in her slow-paced poetic meditation on the soil and trees that surrounded her โtierras that contain countless human remainsโ we encounter those who learned to read the charred bones collected from pyres as part of a collectivity.

Hers are images (and absence of the same) that take us into the most luminous, but also darkest, corridors of a forest that has seen so much brutality.>>
