"If we could hear the future, this would be its voice. Gabriela Jauregui has made time speak: through the voices in the commune, the story of loss and absence is gestated while the trench of last resistance is raised: the language, the testimony».
Emiliano Monge

«Feral is a Greek tragedy brought to the femicide present in Mexico and it is also the story of four friends who discover each other, party, politicize, organize: they share... Gabriela Jauregui's first novel —like everything she writes— is a combination of talent, intelligence, empathy, a deep political commitment and an expansive charisma.

On day 0 or The Worst Day, Diana receives a call: Eugenia, her friend, her sister, was murdered.

The life of the commune, the space formed by four friends and inhabited by their itinerant extended circles, comes to us like the echo of an explosion through the investigation of some archivists from the future. "Below, we know that our archive is, above all, a promise," they write while telling us the story of the four friends: Diana and her visions, prophetic or symptomatic of her, like lightning bolts of language; Saratoga, who can extract music from the world with the slightest touch; Yunuen and her constant search to give shape and coherence to a reality in permanent dissolution and Eugenia, who ended her journey in Teotihuacán, where she worked on an archaeological excavation while she was involved in a community fight against another type of lethal excavation: the extractivism.

In Gabriela Jauregui's first novel, language generates a space of turbulence and tension between the past of a domesticated language and the feral and unrestrained possibility of the future. Feral is a journey through the tunnels of time from where the knowledge that explains the ruins of our present is built. A knowledge that must be reconstructed and recounted because, as the archivists say, "someday this archive will be a garden."
