Inspirada en la infancia de la autora, 'El cuerpo en que nací' narra la historia de una niña con un defecto de nacimiento en un ojo. Ambientada en los años setenta, la vida de la protagonista se ve influenciada por su escasa visión y por la ideología de la época, marcada por matrimonios abiertos, escuelas activas y libertad sexual. A través de un soliloquio en el diván de un psicoanalista, la narradora comparte sus recuerdos más íntimos y reflexiones sobre su vida. Esta conmovedora novela de iniciación explora temas de dignidad, autoaceptación y la búsqueda de identidad en un contexto latinoamericano y europeo.
