A Memoir of Queer Family Making
Por KATE BARSS

Sinopsis
From a lyrical new voice in Canadian literature, a hybrid memoir that looks to the social dynamics of bees to illuminate the challenges and possibilities of queer motherhood.
For Kate Barss and her partner, Bear, the decision to bring a child into the world is anything but cavalier. There are no "accidents." Questions about who will carry and how to find a sperm donor buzz around them like bees in a hive.
As she embarks into this new and uncertain terrain, Barss brings her enduring fascination with bees—highly cooperative, labour-sharing, and female-led—into conversation with her experience navigating fertility, pregnancy, and motherhood as a gay woman.
Blending lush prose and researched nature reportage, A Hive Is a Heart That Crawls is a tender chronicle of a queer couple starting a family, pushing past the expectations and erasures of the dominant culture to discover the messy joys of parenthood that await them beyond.

La Humanidad en crisis
La Supraconciencia es la oportunidad para el cambio
Una invitación a plantearnos la vida que llevamos.
¿Por qué cuando aparentemente tenemos tanto nos sentimos tan vacíos? ¿Qué nos lleva a la soledad justamente cuando vivimos en un mundo hiperconectado? ¿Qué pasa cuando crecemos sin valores espirituales? ¿Por qué el suicidio es la causa número uno de muerte entre los jóvenes? Vivimos más años que nunca, pero cada vez más personas —especialmente jóvenes— sienten que la vida carece de sentido.
