There is in The Weight of the Human a constant mystery, a mist that perhaps suggests to us that human experience is, in essence, unintelligible. The common line is, on the other hand, obvious: suffering and the ability to realize it in one's own flesh and to glimpse it, at least, in others. Through narratives of different tones and impregnated with religious, philosophical and moral notes, Erwin Limón builds a community of beings in the same way as all of us: that of the weight of consciousness, the weight of the human.
