Camila, after the death of her son, sinks into depression and accepts an assignment that takes her to Chiapas: to write about the Zapatista insurgency in the Lacandon jungle. That journey becomes an initiation in which she learns to commit and to heal, between personal grief and the social reality of Mexico.

For readers of contemporary fiction interested in stories of grief, social commitment, and initiatory journeys.

Marcela Serrano is a Chilean novelist. In 1994, her first novel, Para que no me olvides, won the Literary Prize in Santiago, and her second book, Nosotras que nos queremos tanto, won the Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz Prize for women writers in Spanish. She received the runner-up award in the renowned Premio Planeta competition in 2001 for her novel Lo que está en mi corazón. Carlos Fuentes has quoted her description of the modern woman as "having the capacity to change skin like a snake, freeing herself from the inevitability and servitude of more obsolete times."
