This book tells the personal journey of writer Júlia Bertran when, at 39 years old, she tries to get pregnant and is forced to resort to egg donation.

Júlia Bertran recounts, in the first person, with great honesty and rigor, the experience of her pregnancy through egg donation. It is a story in which intimate desires, feelings of guilt, insensitive laws, and the violence imposed by the market constantly intertwine. It is an attempt to unmask the euphemisms and taboos surrounding the assisted reproduction industry, but also to build a collective dialogue about the process so that people are not forced to face it alone, as she did, and so that we find more ethical and respectful ways of doing things. "I air out my guts in case they can be useful to someone," she says.
