Iz spremne besede Mitje Čandra: V kratkem romanu Amigdalino srce je v fragmentih predstavljena življenjska zgodba Gale Amande Brollo, njene družine in ljudi, ki preko ljubezenskih razmerij zapletajo in prepletajo njihova življenja. Avtorica skrbno izbere tiste življenjske dogodke, večinoma zelo intimno-ljubezenske, ki preusmerjajo tok življenja in na ljudeh puščajo globoke emocionalne sledi. V vodilni pripovedni liniji Gala razrešuje probleme svojega ljubezenskega življenja. V neuspešnem iskanju »moškega, ki je v njej«, naleti tudi na povsem čustveno otopele moške, na koncu pa se vrne k nekdanjemu fantu Marcu, ki prav tako neuspešno skuša nadomestiti svojo usodno žensko (Galo) s kopico žensk, ki mu med drugim omogočajo tudi bleščečo kariero, vendar z njimi ne najde ljubezenske sreče.

From the accompanying text by Mitja Čander: The short novel Amigdala’s heart is a fragmented life story of Gala Amanda Brollo, of her family and the people, who enter their lives through love affairs. The authoress carefully chooses those life events, mostly of love and intimacy, which change the course of life and leave deep emotional traces. In the main stream of the novel Gala is dealing with the problems of her love life. In her unsuccessful search for a “man, who is inside of her” she meets just emotionally numb men. She returns to her ex boyfriend Marc, who is also trying to replace his femme fatale (Gala) with a bunch of women, who amongst other things enable him a great career, but he does not find happiness with them.
