Piedad Bonnett in conversation with Yael Weiss

Querétaro 2025, 

Faced with an autobiographical book called La mujer incierta, it might be thought that it deals with an amalgam of uncertainties. Yet, in reality, the Colombian poet, fiction writer and essayist, Piedad Bonnett, takes her own experiences as a starting point to tackle the times she has lived through, and reading it we can know a bit about the many women she has been; all written in a prose that is poetic, sensitive and emphatic.
