El hijo zurdo
by Rosario Izquierdo
Description
The Left-handed Son. Lola is a young mother of two children, divorced and progressive, who impotently watches the drift of the youngest, Lorenzo, towards the darkness of a neo-Nazi group. In the attempt to understand and regain her son, Lola interacts with Maru, another mother of a different social class who lives in a situation similar to her own. There is a backdrop of different themes - the play of mirrors between the women, city peripheries, and the potential of support networks for those who have become mothers very young - issues of particular interest to the author. An intense and moving story about motherhood in its most heartrending aspect.
