Hello everyone! We are here with another fascinating episode with the excellent guest Valeria Villegas Lindvall! Researcher of Feminism, horror and visual culture, we discussed and went into the aspects of the 2019 novel Cometierra (Eartheater), by Dolores Reyes.  We talk violence, feminicide, representation and police violence, how art can be intensely political while still being beautiful. It is a painful and horrifying book of even worse stories, so CW for this violence, but a conversation to be had on what these disappearances mean, for the individuals, for society, and what are they really, deeply implicated by capitalism, violence and domination! It is... a lot! But an essential talk to be had, enjoy!!
