El libro del club es 'Espiral' de Cristina Cavazos. "Firmo con mis huellas los poemas que las olas borran a su paso."
Una selección de poemas donde la voz de la autora se lanza por un camino de evidentes dualidades donde explora las vías del amor y del odio, la rabia y la serenidad, la vida y la muerte. Aunque parecieran lejanos, Cristina no muestra cómo los opuestos están muy cerca uno del otro en las imágenes que nos regala a través de la palabra. Te esperamos en el club.
