Synopsis "Secuestro pulmonar (Memorias) / Pulmonary Sequestration (A Memoir) (in Spanish)"

Secuestro pulmonar es una autobiografía del cuerpo: una meditación sobre el dolor y la sanación.

Tras someterse a una cirugía mayor en 2023, causada por un “secuestro pulmonar” congénito, Ana Teresa Toro reflexiona sobre la supervivencia y la frágil arquitectura del cuerpo y del yo.

Moviéndose entre la memoria y el ensayo, el libro explora lo que significa reaprender a respirar, despertar tras rozar la muerte y habitar un cuerpo marcado por cicatrices que no solo siente, sino que también piensa.

La intersección de una rara condición médica con reflexiones más amplias sobre la corporalidad, la vulnerabilidad y la sensación crea un texto íntimo y poético de una de las periodistas y escritoras más destacadas del Puerto Rico contemporáneo.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Secuestro pulmonar is an autobiography of the body: a meditation on pain and healing.

After undergoing a major surgery in 2023, caused by a congenital “pulmonary sequestration,” Ana Teresa Toro reflects on survival and the fragile architecture of the body and the self.

Moving between memoir and essay, the book explores what it means to relearn how to breathe, to wake after brushing death, and to inhabit a scarred body that not only feels, but thinks.

The intersection of a rare medical condition with broader reflections on embodiment, vulnerability, and sensation creates richly poetic and intimate text by one of the leading journalists and writers of today’s Puerto Rico.
