Paperback. Condition: New. A meditation on in vitro fertilization that expands and complicates the stories we tell about pregnancy.Medical interventions become an exercise in patience, desire, and delirium in this intimate account of bodily transformation and disruption. In candid, graceful prose, Isabel Zapata gives voice to the strangeness and complexities of conception and motherhood that are rarely discussed publicly. Zapata frankly addresses the misogyny she experienced during fertility treatments, explores the force of grief in imagining possible futures, and confronts the societal expectations around maternity. In the tradition of Rivka Galchen's Little Labors and Sarah Manguso's Ongoingness, In Vitro draws from diary and essay forms to create a new kind of literary companion and open up space for nuanced conversations about pregnancy. …

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Este libro de ensayos es una enciclopedia. Al mismo tiempo es un album de recortes, postales y otros pozos de la memoria. Como enciclopedia, es arbitraria y deliberadamente parcial, sin embargo, no por ello esta incompleta: entre todos sus articulos cuentan la historia universal de una persona. Como album, en cambio, procede con exactitud, con la metodica delicadeza de una constelacion que rige la fortuna de un pueblo. Cada ensayo de este volumen, cada entrada de esta enciclopedia intima y total es una carta de amor. No son cartas febriles, aunque en todas late una intensidad dulce y melancolica. Juntas componen una cartografia diversa: van de la traduccion a la maternidad y la pandemia, de los subrayados como formas de ternura al germen de futuro que se incuba en toda alberca vacia. Encontramos tambien una historia de las virtudes perrunas, un pequeno tratado sobre la libertad y el decoro a proposito de los bufets, y una leccion, a vuelo de pajaro, sobre las posibilidades de migrar dentro de nuestra propia casa. En Alberca vacia, Isabel Zapata nos recuerda que la vida se descubre y se significa en la danza de lo inmediato, en cada gesto, en cada duelo, en cada plato de lentejas. Estos ensayos nos interpelan, a veces de forma directa, otras veces velada, como con una amabilidad tacita. --Alejandro ZambraENGLISH DESCRIPTIONIn Empty Pool, Isabel Zapata reminds us that life is meant to be discovered and find meaning in the dance of immediacy, in each gesture, in each grief, in each plate of lentils. This book of essays is an encyclopedia. It is all at once a scrapbook with clippings, postcards, and other pools of memory. As an encyclopedia, it is arbitrary and deliberately biased. However, this doesnt make it incomplete its many articles tell the universal story of one person. As a scrapbook, on the other hand, it progresses accurately, with the methodical finesse of a constellation ruling over the fortune of a people. Each essay in this volume, each entry in this intimate vast encyclopedia is a love letter. They are not just feverish letters, even though all of them pulse with sweet melancholic intensity. Together they make a diverse cartography: from translation to maternity and the pandemic; from highlighting as a form of tenderness, to the germ of the future that incubates in every empty pool. We also find a story about dog virtues, a small treaty about freedom and decorum on the subject of buffets, and a birds-eye lesson about the possibilities of migrating within our own home. These essays question us, sometimes directly, and on occasions vaguely, as with an unspoken kindness.
