Book Synopsis



"Pepita Sandwich honra el acto de llorar con una sensibilidad exquisita. Por fin, a partir de este libro, ninguna lágrima más será contenida". - Agustina Guerrero

¿Qué pasaría si llorar no fuera simplemente una respuesta emocional, sino un acto de empoderamiento?

A lo largo de la historia, el llanto ha sido interpretado de distintas maneras: desde señal de gratitud en la civilización azteca hasta herramienta de calma de los espíritus en la antigua China. Para los griegos era erótico, mientras que en la Edad Media se le atribuían propiedades curativas contra las infecciones. Llorar es mucho más que una reacción involuntaria cuando nos sentimos tristes: es una fuente de poder y una de nuestras más bellas formas de expresión.

En este ensayo ilustrado, Pepita Sandwich se adentra en el fascinante universo de las lágrimas para investigar y comprender la ciencia y la historia de este fenómeno exclusivamente humano.

El resultado es un libro singularísimo que incluso nos invita a llorar con más frecuencia, porque las lágrimas tienen una poderosa magia propia que nos ayuda a crecer y sanar.

"El libro que nos representa a todos aquellos para quienes llorar es tan vital como respirar. Tierno, divertido y necesario, con unas ilustraciones increíbles". -María Hesse

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Explore the healing, transformative power of shedding tears in this vibrant illustrated study of crying, one of the most uniquely human things we do.

What if crying wasn't just an involuntary reaction to feeling sad, vulnerable, or overwhelmed--but a hidden wellspring of power we could harness to live a fuller life?

In The Art of Crying, Pepita Sandwich makes the case that crying is humanity's most misunderstood and magical special effect. We are the only animals who shed tears as a result of the emotions we feel. But crying is not our weakness: it's our superpower. Our tears are a path to growth and healing that leads to deeper and more fulfilling experiences.

In this beautifully illustrated book, Sandwich dives deep into an ocean of research into tears to understand the science and history of this uniquely human phenomenon. And she has emerged with a case for "letting it all out" a little more often, because tears have a powerful magic all their own.
