Soy Melba, la menor de cuatro hermanas. Soy el resultado de un amor imposible entre dos mundos, dos seres extraordinarios, dos patologías.


Las Huérfanas es una excavación en la memoria del personaje monumental que fue mi mamá Myriam De Nogales, una mujer inalcanzable en sus destrezas y talentos, apasionada, caustica, herida e hiriente, brillante.


Once años antes de tenerme mi mamá se lanzó por una ventana. Me lo contó cuando me llegó mi primer período, como un escabroso ritual de bienvenida a la pubertad. Este libro es también una indagación en los lazos familiares, en la forma en que creamos la identidad femenina, así como en el espectro de la figura patriarcal en la construcción de nuestro universo interior. Así es como celebro el paso por la tierra de todos mis muertos, en especial de mi madre, la muerta que más vive en mí. También celebro a mi prima, Myriam De Nogales, tocaya y sobrina de mamá, para quien el suicidio fue más que un intento. A las lectoras y lectores de esta novela les deseo que este exorcismo del alma, este acto de psicomagia, esta exploración de los fantasmas que nos habitan les traiga el consuelo que me trajo a mí.


ENGLISH DESCRIPTION


I am Melba, the youngest of four sisters. I am the result of an impossible love between two worlds, two extraordinary beings, two pathologies.


Las Huérfanas (The Orphans) is an excavation into the memory of the monumental character that was my mother: Myriam De Nogales, an unattainable woman in her skills and talents, passionate, caustic, wounded and wounding, brilliant.


Eleven years before having me, my mother jumped out of a window. She told me this when I got my first period, as a gruesome ritual of welcoming me into puberty. This book is also an investigation into family ties, the way we create female identity, as well as the spectrum of the patriarchal figure in the construction of our inner universe. This is how I celebrate the passage through the earth of all my deceased, especially my mother, the deceased who lives the most in me. I also celebrate my cousin, Myriam De Nogales, my mother's namesake and niece, for whom suicide was more than an attempt. To the readers of this novel, I hope this exorcism of the soul, this act of psychomagic, this exploration of the ghosts that inhabit us, brings you the solace it brought me.

Awesome Anniversary Gift
I got this for my husband for our 25th silver anniversary because it is partly silver. I think it is a beautiful watch especially for the price. I think he can wear it for everyday at work and not worry about breaking it or losing it and still look classy.

Nice watch
Color: blue watch for men
It’s a very nice watch. I usually wear a cheap watch and I don’t care if it gets scratched it also has the day and the time and the stopwatch feature but this watch is really beautiful and it looks very nice. The one thing I would recommend is that when you’re setting the watch, there are two ways to set the watch one is to pull the button out very slightly and that will set the day and the time the other is to pull the watch button out to two clicks, and that will set the actual hands. But I’d like my watch. It’s the nicest watch I’ve ever owned.

Stylish and eye-catching watch with great value
Color: blue watch for men
This watch looks much more premium than its price suggests. The blue dial combined with the two-tone stainless steel gives it a clean and elegant appearance, making it suitable for both formal and casual wear. The diamond accents add a nice touch without feeling overdone. The quartz movement keeps accurate time, and the date feature is convenient for daily use. The luminous hands are helpful in low-light conditions as well. The build quality feels solid, though the band may need adjustment for a perfect fit. Water resistance is fine for everyday situations like hand washing, but I wouldn’t rely on it for heavy water exposure. Overall, a good-looking and functional watch that offers excellent value for the price.
