Edici�n revisada y ampliada de este «antimanual pop para embarazadas rebosante de sexo, humor y ternura.
Dicen que las n�useas del embarazo son la respuesta al agujero negro emocional que se abre al saber que ser�s madre. Cuando Gabriela Wiener lo supo a sus treinta a�os reaccion� como buena cronista kamikaze y se lanz� a explorar la fuerza gravitatoria de la gestaci�n: no hay experiencia m�s "gonzo" que el embarazo. Wiener escarba siempre donde pocos quieren buscar y comparte sin pudor ni alarde sus hallazgos. En este recorrido desinhibido por las grutas del embarazo y la maternidad, la materia se expande y la duda acecha: el amor maternal puede con todo?, qu� hago aqu�, qu� espero de todo esto?, qu� lleva a alguien ansiar convertirse en madre? Esta lectura es un parto sin anestesia, un relato contra la cursiler�a y la frivolizaci�n que narcotizan a las embarazadas ante el "milagro de la vida". Aqu� no hay magia ni alm�bar; hay pornograf�a, abortos, pisos peque�os y una madre joven que lucha contra la precariedad lejos de su pa�s. Porque �sta es tambi�n la historia de una migrante que lleg� a Espa�a sin que a nadie le importara lo que hab�a logrado en el hemisferio sur. Han pasado diez a�os desde su publicaci�n y Nueve lunas sigue siendo un testimonio que conjuga como pocos el terror, la belleza y las paradojas de la propagaci�n de la especie. En esta edici�n revisada y ampliada, la autora dirige una carta a sus hijes para contarles cu�nto ha cambiado todo y cu�ntas cosas por desgracia no cambian nunca. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A revised and expanded edition of the pop "anti-manual" for pregnant women, replete with hefty doses of sex, humor and tenderness. They say that morning sickness is the body's response to the emotional black hole created when you discover you're going to be a mother. When Gabriela Wiener found out she was pregnant at the age of 30, she reacted like any good kamikaze journalist and set out to explore the farthest limits of gestation, because, as all mothers know, there is no experience more "gonzo" than pregnancy. Wiener has made a career of digging where others dread to follow, sharing her findings matter-of-factly and unashamedly. This frank discussion of the minutiae of pregnancy and motherhood raises existential questions: Can a mother's love solve everything? What am I doing here, what do I expect from all this? What makes a woman want to become a mother? This book is as direct as childbirth without anesthesia, an antidote to trite paeans to motherhood and the "miracle of life." There's no magic or sugarcoating here: instead, you'll find pornography, miscarriage, tiny apartments, and a young mother eking out a living in a foreign country. Because this is also the story of an immigrant who arrived in Spain to find that no one cared about her accomplishments back home in South America. Ten years after its publication, Nine Moons is as relevant as ever, a unique testament that channels the terror, beauty and paradoxes of procreation. This revised and expanded edition includes a letter from the author to her children reflecting on all that's changed in the last decade and all that, unfortunately, hasn't.Gabriela Wiener (Lima, 1975) es autora de los libros Nueve lunas, Sexografías, Llamada perdida, Dicen de mí, Huaco retrato y el libro de poemas Ejercicios para el endurecimiento del espíritu. Sus textos han aparecido en diversas antologías y han sido traducidos al inglés, al portugués, al polaco, al alemán, al francés y al italiano. Fue redactora jefe de la revista Marie Claire en España y hoy publica regularmente columnas de opinión para elDiario.es, Vice y la versión en español del New York Times, así como una videocolumna en lamula.pe. Ganó el Premio Nacional de Periodismo de su país por un reportaje de investigación sobre un caso de violencia de género. Es creadora de varias performances literarias que ha puesto en escena con su familia y de la obra de teatro Qué locura enamorarme yo de ti. En la actualidad reside en Madrid.
