Los Espejos de Anaclara

Una niña que sueña. Una abuela que la espera más allá del tiempo. Subida en un barquito de papel, al cuidado de la luna, una niña se aventura en sus sueños. En la travesía, el océano es un acompañante y sobre su superficie de agua salada, las palabras cantan con una sonoridad especial.

Prosa y verso para hablar de amor familiar. Una obra imborrable de la prolífica escritora uruguaya Mercedes Calvo.
