Annotation |
"This book began to be written long before its outrageous and atrocious plot was even outlined. It began to take root from the day the narrator discovered in the newspaper a dirty, dark word: "Femicide." A book that she knew was going to consume her, to fragment her and that, afterwards, no matter how hard she tried, she would not be able to glue the parts back together. But, even so, she had to write it... Brutal, moving and honest, I Don't Want to be Brave Anymore gathers the testimonies of the femicides of Fatima, Mariana, Renata, Mäìchä Pamela, Jalix and Ana. A painful portrait of what happens every day in Mexico, Mariana Morfín--a young Mexican writer who debuts with an urgent and necessary book--gives voice to each of the victims in a shocking mix of fiction and reality, making the reader join the cry for justice, which is none other than "we are fed up with living in fear and we no longer want to be brave, we want women to live in freedom." -- Translation provided by NLS.

"Este libro empezó a escribirse mucho antes de que siquiera se esbozara su indignante y atroz argumento. Comenzó a echar raíces desde el día en que la narradora descubrió en el periódico una palabra sucia y oscura: «Feminicidio». Un libro que sabía iba a consumirla, a fragmentarla y que, después, por más que tratara, no podría pegar las partes de nuevo. Pero, aun así, tenía que escribirlo... Brutal, conmovedor y honesto, Ya no quiero ser valiente reúne los testimonios de los feminicidios de Fátima, Mariana, Renata, Mäìchä Pamela, Jalix y Ana. Retrato doloroso de lo que sucede día a día en México, Mariana Morfín--joven escritora mexicana que debuta con un libro urgente y necesario--le da voz a cada una de las víctimas en una impactante mezcla de ficción y realidad, logrando que el lector se una al grito de justicia, que no es otro que «estamos hartas de vivir con miedo y ya no queremos ser valientes, queremos que las mujeres vivan con libertad»." -- Proporcionada por la editorial.
