Fiction
The logic of damage
by Luz Vitolo
Who hasn’t suffered pain or caused it to others? Hurt can be voluntary or premeditated, lethal or miniscule, but impossible to ignore.Luz Vítolo, with a raw and acute eye explores themes as delicate as preadolescent sexuality, suicide, sickness and the aftermath of an accident.These stories, like a gut punch, leave us out of breath and force us to recognize ourselves as vulnerable beings faced with the inevitable pain of being alive. “Tales of a superior intelligence. They’ll survive because they allow the reader to tremulously settle into the empty spaces, fill them in, and make them their own”.Luis Mey
