LOVE IS AN EARTHLY DREAM by NATALIA POSSO

In this #poetry collection, I wanted to delicately explore courtship, marriage, honeymoon, pregnancy, divorce, and finally, forgetting.

Taking into account the difficult experiences women sometimes have throughout their journey loving one or several men, the central focus is women's most intimate feelings.

Nueve golpes conveys the harsh reality of #gender violence, while the poem Volví a escribir... expresses the sense of freedom a woman experiences as she continues pursuing her career without ceasing to be a mother or wife.

The book has two parts, and the second part speaks to the kind of communication couples had before, when smartphones or beepers didn't exist and we simply made plans and met up—other times we lost touch for many reasons.
