Infancy of Our Bread (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798665947686)

English & Spanish - Bilingual Edition - Infancy of Our Bread opens with the story, in the first person, of Jesus' infancy from the moment when "the bees produce in silence/ my first words" to when his innocence, surrendering to History but at the same time mastering it, becomes a sign of humanity, harbinger of love, of truth, and of freedom ("I will be Shepherd of free beings").Remembering childhood, with its unpredictable and authentic events and sensations, is not an easy matter. However, Juana Rosa Pita achieves, in looking back, to travel up the river of historical and personal memory, in a way that the Innocent (a fundamental theme of ancient mythologies, glorious and betrayed premise of existence, ideal place where hides the unity from which every feeling blooms) results in it being transfigured and exalted with the infinite nostalgia of the exiled and the longing of a biblical imagining. - Pietro Civitareale
