‘Valeria's hand creates tension and stretches out time to remind us that fear happens slowly.'

'When we thought we had read everything, Valeria. When we believed that the universe of the story was created, Valeria. When we said that we already had the best Argentine writer and we mentioned Silvina, Angélica, Hebe... Valeria.'
