Sinopsis

Maria Mercè Roca&rsquo,s tender narratives illustrate the potency of language: &ldquo,the supplications were like a song and if I said them over and over I became drunk from the rhythm and the words, in a kind of ecstasy.&rdquo, A profound security is derived through shared conversations, as when her father picks her up from school: &ldquo,You carry the suitcase and, at first, we walk fast without saying anything as if we were afraid they&rsquo,d make us go back. When we&rsquo,ve covered a bit of distance we look at each other and begin to laugh. &hellip, I calm down and &hellip, nothing seems so tragic any more.&rdquo, As well as wounds incurred and deepened by silence. From a trauma of police brutality scraping at the interior mind and body&mdash,to a child punished by her mother&rsquo,s refusal to speak or look at her. Many layered, the architecture of steps, ceilings, and train tracks structure the waxing and waning of human life and death.
