De monstruos y cyborgs es un libro breve, pero intenso. Con una prosa que valora tanto el ritmo poético de la lengua, como la claridad de un argumento, la autora examina el impacto fÃsico y emocional de un trasplante cardiaco y otras intervenciones quirúrgicas. Este ensayo, que experimenta con el formato mismo del género, intercala reflexiones sobre las propias vivencias con temas tales como la historia de la medicina o los problemas éticos implÃcitos en el trasplante de órganos, para formular una pregunta fundamental: qué nos hace personas? De monstruos y cyborgs is a brief, yet powerful book. With prose that values both the poetic rhythm of language and the clarity of an argument, the author examines the physical and emotional impact of a heart transplant and other surgical interventions. This essay, which experiments with the very format of the genre, intersperses reflections on one's own experiences with topics such as the history of medicine or the ethical problems implicit in organ transplantation, to formulate a fundamental question: what makes us people?
