Casadentro y otras memorias
Desde el misterio, mediante una síntesis entre prosa y poesía, Locadelamaceta narra un conjunto de historias con tino tan certero disfrazado de indecisión, enriqueciendo a quien las visita y logrando una unidad de sentido que se enhebra en la aguja penetrante de su voz. Lo suyo es «proesía», pues es a la vez proeza y profecía. Una construcción desde los cimientos de la reflexión más profunda, solitaria y en conflicto con su propia tristeza. Un libro que no se agota en una ni en dos ni en cuantas lecturas quieran hacer los lectores. Las lectoras. Porque es, como pocos, y en una época en que esto es imprescindible, un libro mujer. Una libra.
Usted & la Canción Mixteca
Los textos recopilados son semillas, pistas, paradojas y narraciones desde lo cotidiano, y si el lector no se cuida, el lenguaje y los símbolos le agarrarán desprevenido; cada uno debe ser visto con lupa, como quien repasa el revés de un bordado o de una cicatriz. Quien los lea hará bien en aceptar la invitación de buscar hasta dónde llegan las raíces más profundas, entramando las letras con las tazas de café.

The Hydra Head
