It’s not time to die

By Margarita Dager~Uscocovich

How far would you go to save a life? How far would you go to save your own life? Aleppo- Syria 2011. During the war, a child is wounded and is cared for by Samira in one of the city’s hospitals. Keled tells his nurse, whom he calls his guardian angel, what his life has been like during the war. Due to his blindness, caused by an explosion, he begins to live life by the sounds around him. Samira then lives in her own flesh the search for freedom, which will lead her to be part of the sister plans of the dangerous Islamic State. It’s not time to die is a poignant story full of touches blending fiction and truth, weaving together feelings of solidarity, faith, and empathy. With this novel, the author delves into the pain of children and the enslavement of women who are, in this monstrous dispute, weapons of war. Apart from the pain and sacrifices that the protagonists and antagonists go through, hope is alive and perennial, and the will to save a life is the instinct of those who have faith until the end.

Las queremos vivas

Por Margarita Dager~Uscocovich

Las queremos vivas porque no existe razón que justifique el tráfico de millones de mujeres en el mundo; porque nada puede apañar el sufrimiento de una madre como Macarena, quien daría su vida por recobrar a la hija desaparecida. Las queremos vivas porque la tragedia sucede en cualquier lugar y duele igual, y no cesará hasta que las recuperemos y extingamos de la tierra el deseo del mal. ***En su más reciente novela, Las queremos vivas, Margarita Dager-Uscocovich no solo trata un tema grave, serio y puntual, como el horror del tráfico humano, también ofrece su inconmensurable conocimiento de diferentes culturas: la judía, la árabe, la ecuatoriana, la latinoamericana, e inclusive los modismos sureños de nuestro estado Carolina del Norte. En su obra utiliza los términos apropiados, integrados a las instancias de esa trama, que atrapan al lector en diferentes lugares del mundo. Metrópolis y paisajes son descritos a pie juntillas por su experiencia de viajera eterna por los senderos del planeta.
