The Indian vaccines Covashield and Covaxin have been approved by the Argentine government amid a state of

natural resources referred to in this title in a forest reserve area, ecosystems of ecological importance, beaches, low tide
lands, shelters or indigenous reserves, lands of collective property of the black communities, regional park, natural national

WHAT TO READ?
Can horror be the land of the beautiful? Of course. It has already been
demonstrated a long time ago. But what Mariana Enríquez does with this novel
is to raise this possibility to a level that could not be considered possible until
now. Although with Nuestra parte de noche Enríquez won the Herralde Nobel
Prize in 2019, it is only in 2020 that readers were able to experience it. A story in
various times and registers, with a love in the midst of a terrible cult and a
growing darkness and a child of that love that must be cared for so that
nothing swallows it.
It is not the "poor thing" in all its pages. He is someone who does things, who
confronts, who finds mechanisms, who fights for legality, who is hidden, left
aside, who has made the decision to go to the United States to have a better
income.
What can be said about this novel that does justice to the deep humanity in its
pages? A young gay man writes a long and eternal letter to his Vietnamese
mother, who cannot read.
Its title refers to that brain disorder that prevents communication in those who
suffer from it, because it affects language. And boy does that reveal a lot here:
a divorced man takes a tour of the lives he could live, his role as a father and,
above all, as the brother of a woman in the throes of a psychotic break.
