Book Description
This is Querencia is an anthology brimming with thirteen wonderful works from 11 amazing authors who have talked at length to provide their various interpretations of a querencia. The word querencia originally comes from the Spanish verb querer that translates to "feeling safe, happy, and at home." A few of the authors have described querencia through love, through food, and through smiles they brought out on other's faces. Then there were other authors who describe querencia as the games they played as children, places they stayed their authentic selves, and finally there are authors who saw querencia in their abilities to get closure from tragedies. As a wise man once said, we believe that you can find your querencia even in the darkest of times, provided you keep looking for it. Sometimes your no for the querencia you found might just be the not yet, because you have a better querencia waiting for you, out there, designed and tailored for your biggest strengths, tears, smiles and insecurities. With this, we are grateful to those authors out there who joined us in this amazing journey, helping in weaving their creativity into pulchritude works of fiction.
