by Cristina Rivera Garza (Author)

«Leer Terrestre es sobrevolar parajes sobrecogedores e inestables, que son también los territorios movedizos de la memoria, sabiendo que todos los caminos se recorren una sola vez y que "todo se está despidiendo siempre de cualquier manera". Aquí el viaje es el vínculo y también la forma, y Terrestre transita el deseo, la rebeldía, la añoranza y el tiempo con recursos que enfrentan al lenguaje con su potencia política y su abismal intensidad. Lo que hace Cristina Rivera Garza en cada libro es prodigioso. Liliana Colanzi

Terrestre bien podría ser definido como un libro de crónicas especulativas o relatos de viaje, en todo caso, de palabras en completa libertad. Imaginativo, con estructuras narrativas audaces, Cristina Rivera Garza escribe aquí sobre trayectos terrestres que nos llevan a distintos lugares de México y el mundo, y a distintos destinos del cuerpo. A pie, en bus o en tren, las jóvenes protagonistas de estas historias avanzan acompasadas por rutas ignotas, inventando para sí nuevos modos de ocupar los espacios negados y en disputa. Ganadora del Premio Pulitzer por El invencible verano de Liliana, Rivera Garza nos regala un libro extraordinario sobre la amistad, la juventud y el poder de la transformación. Terrestre es un libro mercurial, solar, donde el viaje es el arrojo, la concentración infinita.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"To read Terrestre is to soar over surreal and unstable landscapes, which are also the shifting sands of memory, knowing that we travel all roads only once and "are forever saying goodbye in one way or another." Here, the journey serves as both the connection and the medium; Terrestre leads us through desire, rebellion, longing and time with tools that challenge language and its political implications. Cristina Rivera Garza accomplishes prodigious things in all her books." Liliana Colanzi

Terrestre is perhaps best defined as a book of speculative chronicles or travel accounts, told with complete freedom of language. Cristina Rivera Garza employs imagination and unique narrative structures to relate journeys around Mexico and the world, and to different parts of the body. On foot, by bus or train, the young protagonists of these stories travel uncharted paths, forcing them to invent new ways to occupy forbidden or disputed spaces. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Liliana's Invincible Summer, Rivera Garza gifts us an extraordinary book about friendship, youth and the power of transformation. Terrestre is mercurial and fearless.
