Soy Melba, la menor de cuatro hermanas. Soy el resultado de un amor imposible entre dos mundos, dos seres extraordinarios, dos patologías.


Las Huérfanas es una excavación en la memoria del personaje monumental que fue mi mamá Myriam De Nogales, una mujer inalcanzable en sus destrezas y talentos, apasionada, caustica, herida e hiriente, brillante.


Once años antes de tenerme mi mamá se lanzó por una ventana. Me lo contó cuando me llegó mi primer período, como un escabroso ritual de bienvenida a la pubertad. Este libro es también una indagación en los lazos familiares, en la forma en que creamos la identidad femenina, así como en el espectro de la figura patriarcal en la construcción de nuestro universo interior. Así es como celebro el paso por la tierra de todos mis muertos, en especial de mi madre, la muerta que más vive en mí. También celebro a mi prima, Myriam De Nogales, tocaya y sobrina de mamá, para quien el suicidio fue más que un intento. A las lectoras y lectores de esta novela les deseo que este exorcismo del alma, este acto de psicomagia, esta exploración de los fantasmas que nos habitan les traiga el consuelo que me trajo a mí.


ENGLISH DESCRIPTION


I am Melba, the youngest of four sisters. I am the result of an impossible love between two worlds, two extraordinary beings, two pathologies.


Las Huérfanas (The Orphans) is an excavation into the memory of the monumental character that was my mother: Myriam De Nogales, an unattainable woman in her skills and talents, passionate, caustic, wounded and wounding, brilliant.


Eleven years before having me, my mother jumped out of a window. She told me this when I got my first period, as a gruesome ritual of welcoming me into puberty. This book is also an investigation into family ties, the way we create female identity, as well as the spectrum of the patriarchal figure in the construction of our inner universe. This is how I celebrate the passage through the earth of all my deceased, especially my mother, the deceased who lives the most in me. I also celebrate my cousin, Myriam De Nogales, my mother's namesake and niece, for whom suicide was more than an attempt. To the readers of this novel, I hope this exorcism of the soul, this act of psychomagic, this exploration of the ghosts that inhabit us, brings you the solace it brought me.

Why do people hate on Matcha? This was insanely good!
Flavor Name: Ceremonial Barista, Size: 2.65 oz
So I'll start by saying I am new to matcha. I decided to try it after hearing about it's health/nutritional benefits but I was wary because so many people I know who have tried matcha did not like it, saying it was like drinking grass. My experience was the opposite of that and WONDERFUL! This matcha was incredibly tasty and blended really well. I thoroughly enjoyed it and plan to make this every day. Sidenote: because I had no idea how to prepare it, I watched a video on youtube to make sure I was doing it right and I am so glad I did. If you're wondering it's Michelle Kanemitsu's channel . I will definitely buy this again!

Smooth, fresh and delicious
Flavor Name: All Purpose Culinary Grade Matcha, Flavor Name: All Purpose Culinary Grade Matcha
I’ve tried a few matcha powders before, and this one is honestly one of my favorites. The flavor is smooth, fresh, and not too bitter. It mixes really well and gives that pretty vibrant green color. I’ve been making iced matcha lattes with it almost every day. Great quality for the price and definitely worth trying if you love matcha.

Tasty good quality matcha
Flavor Name: All Purpose Culinary Grade Matcha
Great tasting matcha! I usually order matcha from the famous us coffee shop but this one tastes even better and is wayy cheaper (vs paying per cup). I can make frozen matcha drinks or have it with a sweetener, ice and milk (chef's kiss). I also feel good knowing that it has great health benefits and I like the fact that it doesn't come sweetened so I can add berries or a sweetener. It's not too bitter like some other matchas are and it gives that earthy taste you look for in matcha. Very delicious 10/10.

Yum!
Flavor Name: All Purpose Culinary Grade Matcha
I have zero complaints, the size is ideal considering you don’t need very much for a drink and the flavor is amazing and exactly what I expected, I prefer this to Starbucks as I feel it is a bit sweeter! Blends beautifully great quality and honestly on the cheaper size of what I’ve seen! Good value
