About the Book

On a beautiful day in Miami Beach, a mother and daughter began to talk about their written works and their desire to publish something together . . . This is how the first thoughts of Two Feathers and One Book came to be. This is a very unique book where two languages meet and two genres intertwine. The short stories are provocatively written in Spanish while the poems carry a message of life’s experiences, illusions, and disillusions. Each short story carries the breath and depth of life’s unexpected moments, written with the utmost quality of any authentic and passionate writer. From a magnificent dance with Baryshnikov, to the tragic death of someone too young, every story will leave the reader with a taste of wanting more. Each poem rhythmically and musically tells of a quiet ride to heaven, a romantic walk in the woods, a battle with cancer, and much more to feed the readers’ mind and soul.
