بين روح تمردت على جسدها، ومزقت رداء الخضوع والتسليم، وانطلقت محلقة في فضاءاتها المكتنزة بالسر الأزلي لتقتات النور، وبين نفس استسلمت لغواية الطين ونزق التراب، سطرت كلمات هذا الكتاب، التي قد تبدو للوهلة الأولى حكايات وصورا لتجارب عابرة ومواقف عفوية، لكنها ليست كذلك، فهي إما قطرات من نزف الذاكرة وبعض أمنيات ورجاءات تنتظر منكسرة على أعتاب القدر العادل، وإما آمال وآلام شذت عن المكنون، فانتهكت المستور، وما أكثر ما تفعل ذلك! لقارئي العزيز أن يحلق كيفما شاء، أو يذعن لوساوس نفسه إن شاء، ففي كلتا الحالتين سيرى ذاته هنا أو هناك، وسيعيش التناقض المحتوم. المؤلفة
