Emma Reyes 

Emma Reyes (Bogotá, 1919 – Bordeaux 2003) is the author of the unforgettable MEMORIA POR CORRESPONDENCIA. Hailed in Colombia as the best (or even the most beautiful) book published in 2012, it immerses the reader into a stunning and unusual narrative of a perplexing childhood which can only be told in first person. This string of twenty-three letters cannot be confined to a memoir, testimony or even a novel. Instead, together these letters represent a fine thread that sews a story from start to finish, fabling memories, speaking imagination’s truth, and masterfully evoking a socio-political context now quite distant and unrecognizible from the Colombia most people are familiar with.
