Flor de arrabal / Suburban Flower (Spanish Edition) - 964

$16.14

La emocionante historia de una mujer que supo luchar contra el destino para convertirse en una estrella del espectáculo a principios del siglo XX. En el arrabal zaragozano donde vivía, pocos pensaban que Flor, aquella niña nacida en uno de sus hogares más humildes, estaba destinada a convertirse en una de las grandes figuras de los escenarios, primero en España y luego en toda Europa. Un camino difícil, sembrado de duras pruebas, que la lleva primero a Madrid y, más tarde, a Barcelona, París, Berlín y la lejana Cuba. A lo largo de esa carrera en pos del éxito, Flor va descubriendo el amor, el desengaño, la amistad, el temor y la obsesión. Y a la vez, su vida se sumerge en los convulsos acontecimientos de las primeras décadas del siglo XX, unos años marcados por las revueltas anarquistas, el auge del fascismo y el horror de la guerra. Escrita con la sensibilidad y el pulso de las grandes narradoras, Flor de arrabal nos ofrece la historia de una mujer valiente y entregada al amor, y un apasionante retrato de una Europa vibrante y convulsa. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The exciting story of a woman who knew how to fight against fate to become the star of the show at the beginning of the 20th century. In the suburb of Zaragoza where she lived, few thought that Flor, that girl born in one of its most humble homes, was destined to become one of the great figures of the stage, first in Spain and then throughout Europe. A difficult path, strewn with harsh trials, which leads her first to Madrid and, later, to Barcelona, Paris, Berlin and distant Cuba. Throughout that career in pursuit of her success, Flor discovers love, disappointment, friendship, fear and obsession. And at the same time, her life is immersed in the convulsive events of the first decades of the 20th century, years marked by anarchist revolts, the rise of fascism and the horror of war. Written with the sensitivity and pulse of the great storytellers, Suburban Flower offers us the story of a brave woman devoted to love, and an exciting portrait of a vibrant and turbulent Europe.
