Synopsis "Bienvenida a Casa / Welcome Home (in Spanish)"

«Siempre estoy buscando... deseando sentirme en casa. La recopilación definitiva de los textos autobiográfico jamás publicados de Lucia Berlin.Pese a la calidad abrumadora de su escritura, tuvo que llegar Manual para mujeres de la limpieza para que Lucia Berlin se convirtiera en una estrella literaria sin igual. Sus historias están pobladas de personajes, entornos y emociones de la propia vida de la autora, una vida llena de precariedad y cambios de rumbo.Bienvenida a casa es una recopilación de textos autobiográficos en la que Berlin estaba trabajando antes de su muerte y que muestra, con la intimidad de una confidencia, los espacios más personales de la vida de una misteriosa autora que ya ha alcanzado el estatus de leyenda. El volumen lo completan cartas y fotografías que hacen que este sea el objeto perfecto para conocer de primera mano a Lucia Berlin como escritora y, también, como ser humano.ENGLISH DESCRIPTION "As the case with her fiction, Berlin's pieces here are as faceted as the brightest diamond." --Kristin Iversen, NYLON NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW EDITORS' CHOICE. Named a Fall Read by Buzzfeed, Vulture, Newsday and HuffPost A compilation of sketches, photographs, and letters, Welcome Home is an essential nonfiction companion to the stories by Lucia Berlin Before Lucia Berlin died, she was working on a book of previously unpublished autobiographical sketches called Welcome Home. The work consisted of more than twenty chapters that started in 1936 in Alaska and ended (prematurely) in 1966 in southern Mexico. In our publication of Welcome Home, her son Jeff Berlin is filling in the gaps with photos and letters from her eventful, romantic, and tragic life. From Alaska to Argentina, Kentucky to Mexico, New York City to Chile, Berlin's world was wide. And the writing here is, as we've come to expect, dazzling. She describes the places she lived and the people she knew with all the style and wit and heart and humor that readers fell in love with in her stories. Combined with letters from and photos of friends and lovers, Welcome Home is an essential nonfiction companion to A Manual for Cleaning Women and Evening in Paradise.
