Milk Tooth

Milk Tooth is a novel about inherited trauma and the way the fragility of childhood gradually transforms into the hardened structure that either keeps a person alive or crushes them under its own weight. The story follows the fate of a lineage of women bound together by a memory that flows through the body, through objects, and through repetitive rituals. At the heart of the novel lies the symbol of the milk tooth—the first bone the body loses, the first sign that innocence must be surrendered for real life to begin.

The destiny of an entire family of women revolves around a silent and merciless protagonist: a massive walnut table, the immovable rock at the center of a century-long genetic storm. Who is Ofelia, really? An accident of fate, a mistake of the flesh, or the central piece of a puzzle woven from violence and abandonment?

A psychologically profound journey, imbued with hypnotic melancholy, about the moment when innocence shatters so that true survival can begin.
