A Veces Nadie / Sometimes No One

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Un delicado y poderoso viaje al corazón mismo de la soledad.>Seis años después, con su vida ya reconstruida, regresa a Asia para ordenar el pasado. En un centro de ayurveda, rodeada de personas que también han llegado solas allí, va trazando un mapa íntimo de la soledad contemporánea: una pareja que ha dejado de quererse, una mujer que confió su valor a la belleza y descubre de pronto la invisibilidad, un adolescente perdido, una anciana fascinante que atraviesa la vejez apoyada en su bastón.

A través de estas historias y de la suya propia, despliega una poderosa y poética reflexión sobre el desamor, el miedo, el vacío, el silencio, la necesidad de otra piel y la búsqueda de sentido. En un mundo cada vez con más soledad, quizá no se trate de huir, sino de aprender a vivir en ella, de volverla un lugar habitable, incluso hermoso. Porque, como escribió Emily Dickinson, estaría mucho más sola sin mi soledad.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A delicate and powerful journey to the very heart of solitude.Shortly after her separation, Casilda Sánchez Varela sets off on a solo trip. She doesn't yet know how to cope with her new life: joint custody, empty rooms, endless Sundays of silence. She believes that getting away for a while will give her the strength to learn how to deal with all of it. On the first night en route to Asia, flying over the ocean, something happens. A kind of luminous current pierces the pain that has been with her for months. The very reality that was suffocating her turns, for an instant, into radiance. An élan of freedom. Bewildered by this contrast, she decides to observe loneliness. To question it. To understand it. To make it her own.

Six years later, with her life now rebuilt, she returns to Asia to make sense of the past. At an Ayurveda center, surrounded by people who have also arrived there alone, she charts an intimate map of contemporary loneliness: a couple who have stopped loving each other, a woman who staked her worth on beauty and suddenly discovers invisibility, a lost teenager, a fascinating elderly woman navigating old age with the support of her cane.

Through these stories and her own, she unfolds a powerful and poetic reflection on heartbreak, fear, emptiness, silence, the need for a new skin, and the search for meaning. In a world growing ever lonelier, perhaps it is not a matter of fleeing, but of learning to live within it, of making it a livable place--even a beautiful one. Because, as Emily Dickinson wrote, I would be much lonelier without my loneliness.
