Моя мать прокляла мое имя

A warm and slightly magical family story about three generations of women who cannot come to an agreement with each other or with the past. At the center of the plot are three "girls" of the Olivares family, each with their own secrets, grievances, and little miracles. There is humor, magical realism, and those "second chances" that provide the opportunity to correct old mistakes. For generations, the Olivares women have sought to control the fates of their daughters, starting with their names. The stern Olvido constantly clashed with her carefree daughter Angustias. Young Angustias, after giving birth to a daughter, left her mother’s home in search of her own. Her daughter Felicitas has never met her grandmother, only speaking with her a few times on the phone.
When she finally meets her grandmother, she turns out to be stern, sarcastic, and... dead. As they unravel the tangled web of secrets, mutual accusations, regrets, guilt, and the desire to mend relationships, the "girls" of Olivares gradually learn to truly listen to each other, attempt to overcome their mistakes, and rectify the mistakes of others made with the best intentions, while discovering the true meaning of the word "home".
This book is like a cozy evening among loved ones, where laughter, arguments, and quiet belief in the fact that true magic lives in our communication with each other happen together.
