Love and Terror of the Words is an autobiographic fiction which looks at life from the eyes of a child and through the prism of words. The twenty-two chapters relate intimate experiences in search of the origin of the languages of the world and of nature, introducing the readers to a universal question: how does language structure knowledge? Words will never be quite the same after reading this unnerving book.


Amor y terror de las palabras es una ficción autobiográfica que invita a observar la vida desde los ojos de un niño, a través de las palabras. Los veintidós capítulos relatan experiencias íntimas en busca del origen de las lenguas del mundo y la naturaleza, introduciendo al lector a una pregunta universal: cómo el lenguaje estructura el conocimiento. Las palabras ya nunca serán las mismas tras la lectura de este libro pavoroso.
