Los sentidos

A lyrical meditation on biodiversity, memory, language, and the fragile boundaries between the human and the more-than-human. 

In three interconnected novellas, Marina Berri imagines a world almost identical to our own, where subtle shifts in biology, language, and perception challenge humanity's place within nature. A group of park rangers confronts an ecosystem that no longer obeys familiar rules; a traveler searches for the remnants of an Indigenous language whose words encode an entirely different way of understanding reality; and a mother and daughter arrive on an island where a mysterious fog reshapes the senses. Together, these stories explore what happens when human perception ceases to be the measure of the world.
