"Juliana Muñoz Toro ha escrito un libro singular, de esos que sólo pueden aparecer una vez, porque es imposible imitarlos, y porque nacen como una aventura impulsada por una pasión específica, configurando un mundo del que se puede entrar y salir libremente, pero al que siempre se querra volver". Piedad BonnettEl Eden de los jardineros Adan y Eva, los Jardines Colgantes de Babilonia, el jardin de Calipso en la isla Ogigia, el jardin de senderos que se bifurcan de Borges, el campo de ranunculos de Emily Dickinson, y muchos otros paisajes construidos desfilan por las paginas de este libro singular. Juliana Muñoz Toro utiliza los jardines como un espejo para reflejarse y hacer memoria de su conexion con estos espacios vitales y tambien los usa como ventanas para recorrer todos los que existen, bien sean creados, imaginados o soñados. La escritura poetica de los textos que conforman este libro destila jardinidad, la palabra que ella ha acuñado para describir la conexion con lo divino y lo simbolico que encierran estos lugares.
