Audiobooks Storytel
Finalist for the Rómulo Gallego Prize, her work has served many artists as an inspiration for their short films, shows of poetry and music, illustrations, choreography, readings and plays.
Capable of transmitting with utmost clarity complex reflections that cut across the areas of art, public life, reader education, the craft and vocation of writing, Andruetto gives lectures in numerous undergraduate and graduate venues and has been invited to conferences, trade fairs and workshops at home and abroad.
(…) There are artists who transcend art and take their places in society, writers who are far more than their books and are able to place their themes in the “conversation” of a people, intellectuals whose impact reaches the human spirit, the one place where people can begin to improve. It is for this reason that I do not hesitate to state that the intellectual work that Andruetto has done over the last 30 years is a kind of philanthropy. Ivan Wielilosielek, El Diario
Continuity and nevertheless transformation, because what characterizes her writing is just the opposite of a repetition of the formulas for success, used by both the scribes of bargain novels and by writers who have given up on the quest for knowledge. Susana Rodríguez
María Teresa Andruetto’s narrative creates a unique poetry, both in what it says and in how it says it. Pilar Muñoz Lascano and María Victoria Ramos, Fundación Cuatrogatos
María Teresa Andruetto’s writing is less formed in the native tongue than in what she called, beautifully, “the mother tongue”. The mother tongue is a maternal tongue, that is to say, original, because in it a certain voice is articulated, remote but at the same time present, the voice of a plural woman in which all the stories, all the memories, are interwoven. Jorge Monteleone
María Teresa Andruetto has a vocation for watching and listening like no other writer. Silvina Friera, Página 12
A writer of mesmerizing sensibility. Patricio Zunini, Infobae
María Teresa Andruetto talks as if she was singing —she writes like a composer, like if she was whispering a secret. Softly, quietly, pausing subtly, just like a tuned note, like a clear lake showing its deepest point. Claro que Leo, México
An author who masters all literary genres. Daniel Divinsky, Los libros hablan
(…) the practice of writing as a gift and as a memory. Nora Domínguez
Absolute sensitivity to the human voice. Canela, Argentinean cultural communicator
Annie Ernaux and Andruetto write by digging into the depths of memory. Sergio G. Colautti, Letralia
