Así, con un lenguaje increíblemente visual y alegórico, van desfilando por estas páginas la ansiedad, la manipulación, la precariedad, el cambio, la soledad, la locura, la maternidad, la vejez o la muerte en un libro que mezcla la autoficción, elementos de cómic y referencias literarias, poéticas y musicales.

What is the origin of our fears and how can we exorcise them?
In this visceral and gorgeous book, María Hesse comes face to face with the fears she shares with so many other women. Using profoundly visual and allegorical language, she shines a spotlight on anxiety, manipulation, vulnerability, change, loneliness, madness, motherhood, old age and death in a volume that blends elements from autofiction, comic books and literary, poetic and musical references.
In The Fear, Hesse hones her narrative and artistic style to craft her most mature book yet.
