Description: "In Abecedario del estío, Liliana Lara uses the letters of the alphabet as a starting point for the stories that make up this volume. Situations and reflections that oscillate between fiction and reminiscence serve as the primary elements that shape each narrative. The book is filled with images etched into memory—such as the water in the pool where her son nearly drowned, the violent awakening to bombings during the second war between Israel and Lebanon, recollections of bus terminals and journeys in Venezuela, and the contrasting pleasures of kosher and non-kosher food. These very brief stories can become delightful anecdotes to read, offering both nourishment for reflection and an exploration of the satisfactions and fears of the immigrant who navigates cultural duality." (Sudaquia, translated from Spanish by Archivo Venezuela).
