Poems
“ Pelagagi celebrates ancestry through the sense of smell, scents, seasonings, perfumes, spices: the mint of childhood, the night-blooming jasmine, bread, olive oil, wine and, why not say, the rhizomatic blood that haunts the girl who inhabits the woman, who shelters the mother. ”

“I like stories about encounters. I like stories that take place in everyday life. I love being able to tell a story that depends on rain without making a storm! And perhaps what I like most about this work is that the story doesn't end there inside the book, when the text ends.”
