Overview

Para tomar una decisión que podría dividir el tiempo en un antes y un después, una mujer deja su casa y empieza a caminar sin rumbo. A cada paso busca un equilibrio entre la obediencia y la autodeterminación, guiada por la voluntad de imprimirle cuerpo a sus pensamientos. Por el camino se atraviesan diálogos, testimonios, acusaciones y secretos, entre los que se cuelan a ratos el suave recuerdo de su esposo y la voz de su Dios.

En La primera que camina, Ana Francis Mor reescribe el Antiguo Testamento (del Éxodo a Reyes) a partir de una premisa peculiar: tras el anuncio de Gabriel, María decide tomarse un tiempo para decidir si engendrará o no al Hijo de Dios. Extrañado y seducido por esa determinación hacia la libertad, Dios acepta que durante tres años María recorra a pie un extenso mosaico de historias, en las que escuchará de migraciones y genealogías que han luchado por sobrevivir a través de mares y desiertos.
 
Con una notable capacidad para crear distintas voces narrativas al ritmo de las emociones, las dudas y los razonamientos de María, la autora hilvana una historia de temperamento hilarante y místico, una reinterpretación de uno de los relatos fundacionales de Occidente y una profunda exploración de las implicaciones del libre albedrío.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Agonizing over a decision with the power divide time into a before and after, a woman leaves home and begins walking with no fixed destination. With every step, looks for balance between obedience and self-determination, struggling to shape her thoughts. These include fragments of conversations, testimonies, accusations and secrets, intermixed with tender memories of her husband and the voice of her God.

In The First One Who Walks, Ana Francis Mor reimagines the Old Testament (from Exodus through Kings) with a unique premise as her starting point: after receiving the Annunciation from the Angel Gabriel, Mary decides she needs time to decide whether she wants to conceive the Son of God. Perplexed but intrigued by her will to be free, God allows her to wander for three years. During her travels, she collects a mosaic of stories about the migrations and genealogies of a people that has struggled to survive across seas and deserts.
 
By creating contrasting narrative voices as Mary oscillates between emotion, logic and doubt, the author weaves an inspiring and mystical story. This reinterpretation of a foundational story of western civilization is a profound exploration of the implications of free will.
