Miranda Mirando - Rafael Correa
The work presents three generations of Antioquian women, strong and decisive in their chosen position in the world. With simple and moving language, Rafael Correa shares with us the destinies forged by a mother named Miranda for her daughter and granddaughter, after they left Colombia, lured by the promise of a better life abroad.

Paradise has no face of its own.
