From the editor:

"El juego de la madalena" is Julieta Averbuj's first book. It talks about the construction of remembrances and of memory as a changing path full of detours.

"They called me one noon in December 2017 to tell me that my father was gone. In Buenos Aires, during the days that followed, I dedicated myself to looking very closely at the photo albums in his house. I then felt the need to make a book to honor him, this being the object through which he also expressed himself.

I hope that the reader lives the book as an experience. That whoever has it in their hands is encouraged to look at it from near and far, to touch it, to look for combinations and find relationships. It is a book that invites the viewer to play. And I think that this is the best possible tribute to my father, inventor of the cupcake game (el juego de la madalena) and many others." - Julieta Averbuj
