Summary
"In the tales of Fresh Earth from Her Grave there are fishermen who cross the seas of death, girls abandoned in the steppes who find in the gospel a bridge to beauty, women whose madness is nothing more than a shattered heart, old Japanese women who dig in a garden to find the best and worst of themselves, boys from a Canadian tribe who dress in animal skins so they can roar again. Characters, in short, who tear the thin membrane of ordinary life, try to touch, with the outstretched hands of childhood, the sensual dimension of the beyond and dangerously look into an inner abyss that will eventually devour them. Six stories of luminous darkness that pierce us like a wound, and that in the end make us understand the possibilities of love, justice and hope, but also, as in Edgar Allan Poe's "A descent into the Maelström", the height and depth of the abyss.
