Valentine Amor y furia (Spanish edition) Audiobook Summary
En un pueblo a trescientos kilometros de cualquier lugar, los destinos de un punado de personajes se entrelazan en una narracion magistral de odio y miedo, pero tambien de amor y de esperanza.
Es el dia de San Valentin del ano 1976 y el pueblo de Odessa, Texas, esta en la cuspide de un boom petrolero.
En medio del campo petrolifero, pocos minutos antes del amanecer, Glory Ramirez, de catorce anos, logra sacar fuerzas para escapar de su agresor. Atraviesa el campo entre alambres de puas, restos de tuberias rotas y matojos de mezquite hasta llegar a la puerta de Mary Rose Whitehead, cuya vida se ve irremediablemente trastocada no solo por la crueldad de la que ha sido victima la nina -bien podria ser su hija- sino por los hechos subsecuentes, que se suman a los relatos de violencia e injusticia cotidianas que por generaciones han sufrido las mujeres de su pueblo.
Mas alla de describir el contexto historico de un pueblo sureno, Elizabeth Wetmore nos ofrece un potente debut literario que explora los limites del ser humano. Una novela coral extraordinariamente escrita que nos lleva por las entranas de las mujeres que la protagonizan.
Nacida y criada en West Texas, Elizabeth Wetmore vive con su esposo y su hijo en Chicago. Amor y furia es su primera novela.
