Before There Was Nothing (Antes no había nada)

Chiara Carrer

“I have collected leaves, seeds, foliage and branches, nests, filaments and roots, cultivating the desire to build a secret garden.” Chiara Carrer.

Before there was nothing…unleashes a game of image projection in the reader, blossoming memories and associations of travelled landscapes, which sow the seeds from which an intimate and personal imaginary garden sprouts.

The Bag (El Bolso)

María José Ferrada, Ana Palmero Cáceres

Keys, handkerchiefs, coins, three flowers from last spring, a bird. Boys and girls are expert observers and that is why they know that a mother’s purse fits everything. A book in Braille that reminds its readers that when observations are mixed with imagination, the most everyday objects are capable of coming to poetic life.

A Different Kind of Head (Una cabeza distina)

Luis Panini, Chiara Carrer

The narrator child and main character of this story tells us about his head and the vicissitudes that he has to go on to find the head with which he will finally agree. This is a story about the search of identity and growth, developed with fine fantasy and humor, with the wisdom of someone who has sought, and perhaps, has already found.
