Un silencio que camina

Mateo Morrison, winner of the Dominican Republic's National Literature Prize, takes us to the heart of Villa Catalina through the eyes of Mario Watson, a fifteen-year-old boy, and his inseparable friend Momón, ready to savor a boundless summer. When Teresa appears among their games by the lagoon, a single phrase—"Mario and Momón, Momón and Mario…"—unleashes the whirlwind of first love and tests the strength of friendship. Through races along flower-lined paths, laughter at sunset, and knowing silences, Morrison delicately explores the tenderness, jealousy, and complicity of adolescence. This large-print edition is ideal for enjoying every nuance of this short, exciting, and deeply nostalgic story.
