Stories from life… What could be simpler? Describe a few real episodes, sprinkle in a bit of the author’s self-irony, add some fictional touches here and there—and the book is ready. But what secret ingredient is needed so that, in light, everyday stories, the reader feels the depth, sees something barely perceptible yet so important? Or so that they read—and it feels like they’ve looked into a mirror, admitted to themselves, closing the book: “Yes, that’s about me!” Natalia Littéra isn’t a magician, but she knows something that makes life stories exactly like that: light and deep, unique and all-encompassing.
