Yolanda Vera Martinez Harvest

Annotation

The Harvest is a narrative of short stories that makes us reflect about how things used to be and how they are nowadays. This book becomes a great tool against forgetfulness, the collective amnesia that affects many of us. Martnez, as a good teacher, guides us through the little corners of her lifefamily, work, successes and failurespainting her story with simplicity and precision. There is also a version in SpanishLa Cosechaso that present generations, as well as those to come, will remember their roots. Only with well-established and well-remembered roots, we can continue to tell new stories, achieve new advancements and grow new branches of thought and existence.
