Oaxaca y más allá, microrrelatos bilingües del corazón, presenta una dimensión de la creatividad artística abundante que florece en este estado del sur de México. Los diecisiete escritores-ocho mujeres y nueve hombres-ofrecen aquí un total de treinta y seis relatos. Algunas historias presentan una relevancia tradicional y atemporal, mientras que otras se asocian a una estética diferente, una narrativa de ruptura y una exploración de la representación misma. De manera profunda, los microrrelatos de este breve volumen captan también nuestra humanidad compartida, y nosotros, los editores, apostamos a que las voces de esta colección nos conmuevan y unan.Oaxaca and beyond, bilingual microstories from the heart, presents a slice of the rich artistic creativity flourishing in this southern state of Mexico. The seventeen writers-eight women and nine men-offer here a total of thirty-six stories.
