Synopsis "Llamada Perdida (in Spanish)"

Llamada perdida es un libro de relatos autobiográficos que con magistral uso de la ironía y del humor, nos permite sumergirnos en el mundo y en la mirada de una mujer en su lucha diaria contra la cotidianidad y sus propios demonios. Gabriela Wiener aborda temas como el alejamiento del país en busca de un futuro incierto, la maternidad, el miedo a la muerte, la soledad de los cuartos de hotel, la fealdad, los tríos, el misterioso número once, el alejamiento de los amigos, etcétera; temas que la autora evoca como si metiera una moneda en un teléfono público en busca de una respuesta inesperada.
