About the title
Valeria is pregnant. But her boundless joy is suddenly replaced by anxiety and a sense of dread. It's as if something is lurking inside her womb, waiting for its moment. Her friends think hormones are to blame, and that the problem will go away once the baby is born. But every day her bones crack louder, her back feels like it's being torn apart, and sleep has become an endless nightmare. And whatever has taken hold of her has no intention of leaving.
