In Frasquita Carasco's family, a mysterious box has been passed down from mother to daughter since time immemorial, and each one finds her own special unique gift in it. Frasquita found thread and needles in there, her gift is sewing. She not only transforms old rags into the most beautiful wedding dress, but she can reconnect a man with his shadow, revive him by sewing together a fighting rooster that has been torn to shreds. And each of the five daughters will someday receive a strange, beautiful, frightening gift that will be both her happiness and her grief. No wonder the village considers Frasquita a sorceress and shuns her, fears her and yet reaches out to her. But one day Frasquita, along with her children, will have to leave their native village to go wandering through Spain and then beyond, bringing the world a miracle and a curse. "Stitched Heart" - captivatingly beautiful, bright, inventive tale, in which you plunge from the very first lines, and dive out of it will be impossible. Carol Martinez's novel is the same magical realism that stitches fantasy and reality firmly and without seams.
