Overview

«Aún no sabe que esas historias fuera del libro tienen otro nombre, algo que, entre susurros, mejillas encendidas y sonrisas disimuladas, la gente llama deseo.»

Cielo Cruel es una novela generacional que narra el descubrimiento del deseo en tres mujeres. Como un viaje iniciático, el anhelo de conocer el mar será para Mar, la hija, un punto de encuentro entre la pasión y la lucidez de un despertar sensual. Con una mezcla entre culpa y placer, los días para Mar transcurrirán en poner a prueba su supuesto nombre de villana, destino que buscará quebrantar al lado de Alejo, un hombre menor que ella y que la hará enfrentarse a sus miedos más profundos.

Por otro lado, Gloria, la madre, transgredirá el sentido del matrimonio, donde buscará convivir, a un mismo tiempo, tanto con su esposo como con su mejor amiga. Y será a partir del recuerdo y de la recreación de episodios violentos durante el tiempo posterior a la Revolución mexicana, que la abuela Belén mostrará la fortaleza de una mujer que sabe amarse a sí misma y que no precisa de un hombre para alcanzar la plenitud.

Tres mujeres, tres tiempos, una misma sangre en la que Maritza M. Buendía, con su particular estilo, nos hace cuestionarnos y replantearnos la idea del deseo y del cuerpo entre los vientos de un cielo, a final de cuentas, cruel.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

“It is not known those stories are called differently outside the book, something that, in hushed tones and behind flushed cheeks and snickers, people call desire.”

Cruel Sky is a generational novel about three women’s discovery of desire. As an initiation voyage to Mar, the daughter, her yearning to see the ocean will become a rallying point between passion and the clarity of a sensuous awakening. With a mix of guilt and pleasure, Mar’s days will go by putting her alleged villain name to the test, a destiny she will try to break away from by Alejo’s side, a younger man that will make her face her deepest fears.

On the other hand, Gloria, the mother, will transgress the meaning of marriage, seeking to spend time with her husband and her best friend. And it will be through memories and the recreation of violent episodes in the years following the Mexican Revolution that Abuela Belén will show the strength of a woman who knows how to love herself and does not need a man to be fulfilled.

Three women, three moments in time, one blood, in which Maritza M. Buendía, in her singular style, makes us question and reframe the idea of desire and the body in gusts of wind flowing over a sky that is ultimately cruel.
