Description

Against a world riddled with obligations, routines, and other incomprehensible things, the protagonists of these stories cling to the small things, to those they can manage. The focus of these tales revolves around conferences, travel, family life, and animals. A common thread unites these diverse subjects: an interest in the subtle and curious aspects hidden behind everyday practices and institutions.
Travelogues abound, reflecting the author's journalistic experience, where everything that could never be included in a conventional chronicle appears with a particular humor. "From Heaven to Home" is the phrase that encapsulates all the stories in the book, but it is also the title of one of them, which narrates the gap between what is supposed to be pleasing and what is actually pleasing. Between bewilderment and timidity, Hebe Uhart—one of the best Argentine short story writers, according to all specialized critics—finds in the themes she addresses here a pretext for reflecting on relationships and for unleashing fantasies and fears.
