“Madre Flora es un homenaje a unas mujeres sencillas que son y han sido como una de esas hojas de los bosques caducifolios, que van alfombrando el suelo, alimentando la tierra y proporcionando un soporte más mullido para los pasos de las mujeres que van llegando después de ellas.Iskra nos lleva de la mano a conocer la vida de su madre a través de su propia voz, en esta suerte de biografía/autobiografía, que constituye uno de los aspectos más originales de este libro (…).Flora ve una necesidad, se siente interpelada por ella y no puede volver la cara o cerrar los ojos, al contrario, Flora responde: que hay hambre en una barriada, organiza un comedor comunitario; que van a desahuciar a sus vecinos, moviliza a las autoridades y al obispo; que las mujeres deben reconocerse como personas y empoderarse, allí está ella para enseñarlas y acompañarlas; que la dureza de la vida ha alejado a las clases humildes de la instrucción y de la cultura, pues nunca es tarde para aprender, al contrario”.Lourdes Gaitán Muñoz. 10
