Esta obra es una propuesta que transita entre lo especulativo y lo fantástico, marcada por un cuidadoso lenguaje poético, de atmósferas melancólicas y nostálgicas. Estos quince cuentos son un viaje por las distintas violencias que atraviesan las comunidades, los pueblos y las ciudades, donde lo extraño se manifiesta como una sombra que observa lo cotidiano. Los personajes viven en un mundo que los despedaza en constante tension con una ternura incomoda que los hace memorables.Una cabeza que espera ser encontrada a las puertas de su casa. Una tierra que escupe cadaveres y profundos secretos. Una gran lluvia de ranas que termina por generar un apocalipsis. Un pueblo inundado en aras del progreso. Una venerada criatura de dos cabezas. Un niño que parece ser de otro mundo y un monstruo que aparece sentado en la mesa una mañana cualquiera. La libertad de las sombras es un abrazo a lo extraño, lo fantastico y lo magico.

One morning, I realized that it might be helpful to compare insights from my old diary entries with my current experiences. A common thread emerged: my inner conflict, which stemmed from my longing for connection with my dysfunctional family and my desire for creative freedom.Unable to recognize earlier that I had a narcissistic father, I sought his love and approval. That could not succeed. Only by learning to accept myself with all my faults and strengths and freeing myself from self-deception could I love myself and see my failure as an opportunity."Remember to live! Dare to be happy!"(Johann Wolfgang von Goethe)
