La huerta agroecológica. Una historia esdrújula recomendada por el Conde Drácula

Book

La huerta agroecológica (The Agroecological Garden) is a book about the consequences of climate change. It points at the impact of poor nutrition and presents possible solutions for environmental deterioration.

An excerpt containing three concepts and three proparoxytonic words in Spanish perfectly summarize the book’s spirit. It goes like this: More agroecological food for everyone. Neither organic for the rich nor transgenic for the poor. Whereas it may seem a simple pun of proparoxytones in a phrase, there is a clear posturing in the message. There is no need to clarify how words have meaning and define realities, is it?

The book is dedicated to those who sow poetic worlds and harvest magical feelings. There is a lot to do and a lot to create!
