"Allegorical." A lot of people don't know what that word even means. I do.

My granddaughter is about to marry the man whose family buried it.

Un lugar seguro es un conjunto de ensayos en clave autobiográfica que, partiendo de sucesos y situaciones cotidianas, trasciende la experiencia propia de la autora para hablarnos de la amistad, la literatura, el significado de ser mujer en México o las relaciones personales y familiares.
