"In her short story, Colmenero portrays a problem that is both specific and, at the same time, common to many women’s universes: that of care and sacrifice. From her life experience, the author was socialized, as a woman, to nurture and serve others—something that exhausts her. 'I want to protect the women who, like me, from birth have been placed in the line of sacrifice. I want to embrace them with my words,' she says.”
