De las manos, del olfato, de las lágrimas, de los aromas y del corazón de Tita se desprende este diario, un diálogo íntimo que sigue las huellas de la familia De la Garza, iniciadas años atrás en la exitosa novela Como agua para chocolate . Veinticinco años después de la publicación de Como agua para chocolate y luego de haber conquistado a más de 7 millones de lectores, Laura Esquivel vuelve con la realización del sueño de Tita: compartir con todo el mundo los más íntimos rincones de su corazón. En estas páginas nos adentramos en el universo íntimo de Tita de la Garza a través de su diario. Desde el instante inolvidable en el que descubre el amor hasta el día que debe renunciar a él, para cuidar a su madre, de acuerdo con una antigua tradición familiar. Este doloroso acontecimiento, lejos de confinarla a la soledad y el silencio, la llevará a encontrar sus dos vías de expresión: mediante la escritura dialoga consigo misma y, a través de la cocina, se comunica con el mundo y los otros. El diario de Tita es el espacio donde la protagonista atesora sus secretos más intrincados, recetas sin preparar, recuerdos que casi se dilu¥ es el sitio sagrado donde se mezclan todos los ingredientes de una gran novela junto con los destellos espirituales característicos de la autora. Esta historia logra regalarnos un secreto que a su vez nos permitirá recuperar nuestra propia intimidad y, por qué no, nuestro propio secreto guardado en el fondo de una flor marchita o de una carta que luego de generaciones espera sorprender a su asiduo lector. Este conmovedor relato nos permitirá conocer de cerca los hilos mágicos e íntimos con que en su momento fue tejida Como agua para chocolate, la cautivadora historia que le ha dado la vuelta al mundo. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION From Tita's hands, tears, aromas, and heart comes this diary, an intimate dialogue that follows the De la Garza family's footsteps, beginning years ago in the successful novel Like Water for Chocolate . Twenty-five years after the publication of Like Water for Chocolate and after enchanting more than seven million readers, Laura Esquivel returns with the fulfillment of Tita's dream: sharing the most intimate corners of her heart with the world. In these pages, we delve into the intimate universe of Tita De la Garza through her diary, from the unforgettable instant in which she discovers love until the day she must renounce it to care for her mother according to ancient family tradition. This painful event, rather than confining her to solitude and silence, leads her to find two forms of self-expression: through writing, she converses with herself, and through cooking, she communicates with the world. Tita's Diary is the space where the protagonist keeps her most intricate secrets, recipes yet to be prepared, memories that are almost dissolved; it is the sacred place where all the ingredients of a great novel intermingle with the spiritual glimmers that are so distinctive of this author. This story manages to allow us to regain our own inner life, and maybe even our own secrets kept underneath a dried flower or a letter that, even after generations, surprises its reader. This moving tale allows us to truly examine the magic, intimate threads that were interwoven in Like Water for Chocolate , the captivating story that is beloved around the world.
