Ternura es un poemario de Gabriela Mistral, publicado por primera vez en 1924. Esta edición, recuperada por Averso Poesía, busca revivir y dar el merecido reconocimiento a esta obra, que destaca por su lenguaje sincero y tierno, dirigido a la infancia. Mistral recupera la tradición oral de la canción de cuna latinoamericana, influenciada por el colonialismo europeo, ofreciendo una perspectiva única y conmovedora sobre la infancia y la identidad latinoamericana.

Lucila Godoy Alcayaga, known by her pseudonym Gabriela Mistral, was a Chilean poet-diplomat, journalist and educator. She read widely in theosophy, became a member of the Secular Franciscan Order or Third Franciscan order in 1925, but rarely attended mass. She was the first Latin American author to receive a Nobel Prize in Literature in 1945, "for her lyric poetry which, inspired by powerful emotions, has made her name a symbol of the idealistic aspirations of the entire Latin American world". Some central themes in her poems are nature, betrayal, love, a mother's love, sorrow and recovery, travel, and Latin American identity as formed from a mixture of Native American and European influences. She also wrote an immense body of prose, about 800 articles that circulated throughout the Spanish-speaking world, on a range of topics: geography, education, profiles of her fellow writers, politics, and more. Her image is featured on the 5,000 Chilean peso banknote.
