Overview

«Un vórtice de gravedad que condensa toda la literatura de Brenda Lozano, donde conviven lo oral y lo escrito, las tradiciones populares y cierta perspectiva cosmopolita, el humor y la tragedia. Una inyección de electricidad, una música que se sigue escuchando mucho más allá de sus páginas.» -Mauro Libertella

Paloma está muerta. Ha sido asesinada. Pero antes de ser Paloma, su nombre fue Gaspar. Antes de ser Paloma, Gaspar hacía ceremonias para curar a la gente, pero desde que se convirtió en Paloma, se dedicó a la vida nocturna con los hombres. Prefirió el amor a la purificación.

Fue ella quien enseñó a Feliciana todo lo que sabe sobre la curandería. Con este aprendizaje, Feliciana descubre que, además de curar el cuerpo, también puede curar el alma. Pronto sus poderes serán conocidos en todas partes y personas de todo el mundo la visitarán para sanarse. Ella se convertirá en la curandera de El Lenguaje. Por otro lado, la periodista Zoé decide visitar a Feliciana al pueblo de San Felipe para descubrir no sólo la verdad sobre el asesinato, sino también la vida de la curandera. Y en ese mismo tenor, construirá su propio relato.

Brujas es una historia de tradiciones, sanaciones, violencia y, sobre todo, de la importancia del lenguaje; una novela maravillosamente escrita.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The beguiling story of a young journalist whose investigation of a murder leads her to the most legendary healer in all of Mexico, from one of the most prominent voices of a new generation of Latin American writers


Paloma is dead. But before she was murdered, before she was even Paloma, she was a traditional healer named Gaspar. Before she was murdered, she taught her cousin Feliciana the secrets of the ceremonies known as veladas, and about the Language and the Book that unlock their secrets.

Sent to report on Paloma's murder, Zoe meets Feliciana in the mountain village of San Felipe. There, the two women's lives twist around each other in a danse macabre. Feliciana tells Zoe the story of her struggle to become an accepted healer in her community, and Zoe begins to understand the hidden history of her own experience as a woman, finding her way in a hostile environment shaped by and for men.

Weaving together two parallel narratives that mirror and refract one another, this extraordinary novel envisions the healer as storyteller and the writer as healer, and offers a generous and nuanced understanding of a world that can be at turns violent and exultant, cruel and full of hope.
