Tres cosas terribles suceden en un solo día. Essun, haciéndose pasar por una maestra de escuela ordinaria en un pequeño y tranquilo pueblo, llega a casa y descubre que su esposo ha asesinado brutalmente a su hijo y ha secuestrado a su hija. Mighty Sanze, el imperio cuyas innovaciones han sido la base de la civilización durante mil años, se derrumba cuando su ciudad más grande es destruida por la venganza de un loco. Y lo peor de todo, en el corazón del único continente del mundo, se ha abierto una gran grieta roja que arroja suficientes cenizas para oscurecer el cielo durante años. O siglos. Pero esta es la Quietud, una tierra familiarizada con la lucha desde hace mucho tiempo, y donde los orogenes, aquellos que manejan el poder de la tierra como arma, son mucho más temidos que la larga y fría noche. Essun se ha recordado a sí misma y recuperará a su hija. No le importa si el mundo se desmorona a su alrededor. Essun lo romperá ella misma, si es necesario, para salvar a su hija

Hugo award-winning and New York Times bestselling author N. K. Jemisin sharply examines modern society in her first short story collection. N. K. Jemisin is one of the most powerful and acclaimed speculative fiction authors of our time. In the first collection of her evocative short fiction, Jemisin equally challenges and delights readers with thought-provoking narratives of destruction, rebirth, and redemption. In these stories, Jemisin sharply examines modern society, infusing magic into the mundane, and drawing deft parallels in the fantasy realms of her imagination. Dragons and hateful spirits haunt the flooded streets of New Orleans in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. In a parallel universe, a utopian society watches our world, trying to learn from our mistakes. A black mother in the Jim Crow South must save her daughter from a fey offering impossible promises. And in the Hugo award-nominated short story "The City Born Great," a young street kid fights to give birth to an old metropolis's soul. For more from N. K.
