Señorita Nancy was by far my favourite character. The rest of the book... well the writing is astonishingly beautiful... I'm just a bit confused but in a kind of good way? Yeh. I'll definetly read a book by Natalia García Freire again, I'm just confused but also amazed...

The world does not belong to us is and essay style type of read where the main character recounts there life within the confides of there home and there mothers garden. It goes into the complexity of relationships and most importantly the process of realizing that the people who are suppose to love you are just as mortal as you are. The contextualization of bugs in reference to who the main character sees the world is important and creative in how we define relationships  

It also is a poem to Lucas’s death of who he was as well as an explanation of grief about the complex relationship with his father. Something many of us emphasize with but had not been able to put into words like this
