Summary
"|Empty Houses| unfolds in the aftermath of a child's disappearance. His mother is distraught. As her life begins to unravel, she is haunted by his absence but also by her own ambivalence: did she even want him in the first… place? In a working-class neighbourhood on the other side of Mexico City another woman protects her stolen child. After longing desperately to be a mother, her life is violently altered by its reality. Alternating between these two contrasting voices, |Empty Houses| confronts the desires, regrets and social pressures of motherhood faced by both the mother who lost her child and the new one who risked everything to take him." -- Goodreads
