Editorial Unimagdalena

Description in English: The nineteen writings in this book result from a call for short stories within the Universidad del Magdalena community. Holding on to diverse poetics, the stories illustrate from different views and positions how the region—towns and cities in Magdalena—endures the isolation caused by COVID-19: an invisible virus like any other but with a speed of propagation capable of radically altering human coordinates. They attest, without any fuss, to a moment that has not yet been baptized and a world that reminds men and women of their unfulfilled commitments to themselves, the lives of their peoples, and the entire planet.
