Ambivalent— Jessica Delgadillo

Ambivalentes is a polyphonic tapestry, a collective body made of voices that, from different places, times, and writing styles, dare to make themselves vulnerable and narrate motherhood from lived, embodied, intimate experience. Each text is born from a singular experience: the postpartum period, exhaustion, desire, guilt, rage, grief, memory, childhood, the overflowing love and also the love that questions.

This is not a book about "how to be a mother," nor does it seek to idealize or romanticize the experience. It is not a manual or a guide, but a choral book where writing becomes a refuge, a protest, and a reconstruction. In these pages, there is no single way to tell or to feel. Its power lies in this diversity: in giving space to contradiction, to what doesn't always have a name but finds a voice in the texts gathered here, written by Jessica Delgadillo, Isabela Guajardo, Claudia Avila, Ale Rojas, Leonor Báez, Carolina Rosenzweig, Rebeca Quintanilla, Pamela Díaz de León, Karen Mendoza, Lorena Cantú, Ale Talamás, Luz María Acuña, Andrea Altamirano Durán, Lory Dávalos, Nancy Luna, Lulú Zavala, Anilu Cepeda Ferrara, Mariel Argote, and María Antonieta Mendívil.
