The Body Where I Was Born by Guadalupe Nettel
A lyrical, intimate memoir in which the narrator revisits a childhood shaped by a visible physical difference, medical treatments and the stares of others, tracing how illness, isolation and family dynamics formed her sense of self; through vivid scenes of hospitals, domestic uncertainty and curious observations about bodies and otherness, she explores the intersection of vulnerability and resilience, and the ways memory and language try to contain a life lived at the margins.
