Each with Their Own Lake is a short story collection composed of 14 stories that oscillate thematically around the imperilled urban landscapes of the city, around grief and ageing, and love and sadness, set by a restless inky lake. The short story Fire is an example of the instability of identity and the need to share the identity of narratives and real events; where fiction brings balance to the disproportionate relationship between truth and lies, and reality and fantasy. In this circle of stories we can also include the short fictions My Father, the Clock and the Short Story and My Mother, the Flood and the Short Story. These are tense, dramatic, melancholic, and ironic stories in which the existential abyss and the abyss of identity is compensated by the silent text of the writer, carefully retaining the mystery by protecting the right of mystery as the right of creative freedom and the right of free absence or existence.
