Because of a flower

Antonia lives in a town inhabited only by dogs and geckos. All The neighboring hamlets were emptied of their inhabitants and all the lands around seem sterile. In the village of Antonia, or at least in what remains of it, a flower grows that reminds him of better times, the memory of gaiety of this place and the fertility of the fields. Take care of this flower, maintain it alive at all costs, becomes the main goal of Antonia's existence. But a unexpected visit will help him undertake an initiatory journey during from which she will rediscover a life she thought she had lost and learn to cultivate the flower of one's desires. With lightness and delicacy, María Medem draws you into his world of orange sunsets, landscapes with colors bright, with drops of dew and rain hanging from the blades of grass, of birds floating in a sky torn by plumes of clouds, of nature who expresses himself in complete freedom. In Because of a Flower, María Medem constructs a universe whose images continue to inhabit us long after we have enclosed his book; a visual poem remarkable for its creativity and coherence, hymn to the sweetness of solitude and the warmth of encounters.
