Since its publication, empty houses by Brenda Navarro It has become an unforgettable book. This novel will now serve as the starting point for the staging known as the wild housewith Irene Azuela and Mariana Villegas as protagonists.
It will be in this month of May when the staging is let go with various functions. And of course it is a great opportunity to get closer to a story that invites you to reflect from different points on a concept as complex and enigmatic as motherhood is.
‘The wild house’, based on the book ‘Empty houses’
For those who have already read the book, you will know the great work that Brenda Navarro achieved with what was his first novel. But for those who don’t empty houses tells the story of two women who assume motherhood in a different way. Just as it can be a job full of happiness, it can also be tragedy.
And in that context, we know these two women who –in one way or another– are mothers of the same son. One of them is plunged into despair when her child disappears while playing in the park; the other woman takes that same boy to raise as her own. Love and pain, emotion and guilt, joy and remorse… All those feelings converge.
As a result of all that, we find a story about motherhood as the central point of everything. But beyond that, empty houses invites us to question and reflect on the idea that the world historically has of motherhood as something that should be positive almost by obligation. And that will be the inspiration for Lhome wild with Irene Azuela and Mariana Villegas.
