I know there is someone there, on the other side. The reader of this blog, which sometimes is expressed briefly and with respectful affection. The reader who runs the right column looking for an image associated with the work he saw or will see. The reader who looks at the photos, he who asks, speculating whether or not I liked the work for which I write. The reader colleague, I returned his gaze and his word. The reader is moved to ask me, after reading the review dark About King Lear, how is the little moon. And that reader in an office on the first floor of the School of Drama said, looking into my eyes, "I am moved by how you write about your women. " Anyone out there, on the other side.

Flor said: "Gutman is the most important therapist specializing in this subject, and has 3 very successful books published in Argentina, Spain and Uruguay." He added: "I do not want to put in an undertaking, so good if you think you do not get or do not you feel like now, really."

never asked me why I wrote this mail to me. Why a man . why this man . Why just this afternoon nap and postpartum ...

Two days after that e-mail, May 30, 2008, I gave my last kind of publicity and gave up university teaching that I had held for fifteen years. Quit with a newborn baby in her arms, with a woman on maternity leave that would extend five months without pay. And I sold the car. And I prayed to the protection of the White Goddess (who by then was born, as well as a blog). And I plunged into the vertigo of dedication to the theater.

The voice of the male and the male world
Postpartum is a work for adults who can be good parents (or not), mothers (or not). We were all babies. What we do with them is the big question with which humanity is played incessantly destination. Ours is not a book for mothers or for women who remove the men from the scene. It's simply the way we have to find out what sailing waters deeply human female, but with the crucial presence of the voice of our men and their world, which is, like women, ours.
