About the Book

Desde la casa de la abuela, en el viejo barrio de Barracas, en Buenos Aires, se empiezan a desplegar hilos que conectan varias generaciones de mujeres y construyen la trama de la transmision filial materna. La abuela y la madre de Marcela son inmigrantes. De la Galicia de origen quedan las ceramicas, presencia simbolica de Espana. La abuela contestaba la sumision a un destino femenino establecido, Marcela vive a su lado y lee sus libros. La madre la acerca a las ideas socialistas de la epoca. Trazos de infancia que se encuentran en la primera forma de participacion politica de apoyo a la Republica Espanola y en su amor por Angel, un refugiado espanol. Adolescente, asiste a la representacion de "Bodas de Sangre" y quedan en su recuerdo los ojos de Federico Garcia Lorca, presente en el escenario. No olvidara al poeta y cuando llora la tragedia de su asesinato, reconocemos en Federico una figura de la tragedia argentina. El fascismo asesino al poeta, acallo su voz y arrojo su cuerpo a una fosa anonima y esto tuvo eco despues en Argentina. Crimenes y desapariciones en una tierra que era de inmigracion y asilo y se transformo en geografia de terror y expulsion. Noemi, la hija de Marcela se exilara en Mexico. Su generacion defiende nuevos procesos, desarrolla discursos nuevos, pero el norte de la accion coincide. El movimiento se reactiva constantemente en el intento de construir una sociedad mejor. En los dialogos se confrontan distintas posiciones politicas y las voces de algunos personajes reflejan otras maneras de insercion y preocupaciones que atraviesan la cultura del siglo XX. La literatura, el surrealismo, las ideas de Darwin, el urbanismo. Leo suena con la "Ciudad Ideal," la idea de utopia que subyace en la novela. La militancia de las protagonistas hace manifiesta la contribucion de las mujeres en la escena politica. La nueva generacion femenina se encarna en la nieta, Maria Isabel, estudiante de derecho. Asegurar la vigencia de los derechos humanos podria ser la forma de militancia de Maria Isabel. Como articulara en su vida lo que aparece en la novela como una cuota de decepcion inevitable? Oscar Yujnovsky nacio en Argentina, obtuvo el PhD en la Universidad de Berkeley (USA) y en 1989 se instalo en Nueva York donde vive y trabaja. Se dedico a la investigacion academica y dirigio un centro de investigaciones sociales. Fue Asesor de las Naciones Unidas en el PNUD. Es autor de libros de desarrollo urbano y participo en obras colectivas. Numerosos articulos suyos estan publicados en revistas especializadas. Cuentista y novelista, participo en varias antologias de cuentos. Su novela "Forma sonata" fue galardonada con el primer premio de novela corta del concurso organizado por la Editorial Mis Escritos de Argentina, en 2005 y publicada por esa Editorial el mismo ano. Su novela "Luz de Vitral" fue publicada por Jorge Pinto Books en 2008."
