Description in Spanish: No es fcil reunir en un solo volumen la totalidad de la obra crtica sobre Laura Restrepo. Cuando se abri la convocatoria para recibir textos sobre Restrepo, llegaron un nmero significativo de ensayos, reseas y trabajos crticos desde diversos puntos del planeta. Por tanto, no fue sencilla la labor de seleccionar y organizar los trabajos en esta antologa, pero ha sido todo un placer observar la suma de perspectivas, lecturas y anlisis que suscita cada una de sus obras. Se podra afirmar que como escritora, Laura Restrepo cumple con el sueo de todos los autores: el de generar una amalgama de inquietudes y rplicas a partir de su literatura. Esta compilacin parti de una necesidad. Con ms de siete novelas publicadas, que han sido traducidas a doce idiomas, Laura Restrepo es actualmente una de las escritoras colombianas ms reconocidas y quiz la que ha trascendido con mayor xito las fronteras nacionales. Su obra combina el reportaje con la ficcin desde una perspectiva objetiva de los conflictos que vive Colombia. Pero es tambin, desde una perspectiva humana, el retrato de las pasiones que viven las personas en cualquier parte del mundo.« less
