Cosecha de Verano, winner of the Rosario Castellanos National Award for Novella 2010, is a stunningly beautiful text formed by masterful strokes that capture family dynamics in a rural atmosphere. Contreras' original, powerful voice explores memories, longings, resentments, and rivalries and evokes that stage of life when sensuality is first awakened. Universal in its appeal, the young narrator's tale is intriguing and touching. The language of the novella is clean and pure. The format of this edition (Bric-a-Brac Press, 2024), with the original Spanish text on one page and its translation, Summer Harvest, on the facing page, introduces Contreras' art to the English-speaking public and allows the reader to appreciate even more the poetry of the author's prose.
