En este conmovedor relato, calificado por la autora como una «autobiografía falsa», una niña nacida en una sociedad que tiene un enorme aprecio por la belleza descubre que es considerada fea. Mientras Dios, la religión, la enfermedad, el amor y la muerte van emergiendo de una realidad tal vez más amarga de lo que imaginaba, la protagonista, a pesar de las incertidumbres y temores que guarda en sus entrañas, logra sortear esta percepción temprana gracias al estímulo de las palabras y a una innata e imaginativa rebeldía. Los terrores de la infancia, la educación estricta y constreñida, el proceso de aprendizaje, la aparición de la literatura, los descubrimientos mínimos, las transformaciones del cuerpo, la salida de la casa familiar y los tropiezos del amor están narrados por la protagonista de esta historia con emotivo y sincero orgullo. ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONIn this moving story, described by the author as a "false autobiography", a girl born in a society with a huge appreciation for beauty discovers that she is considered ugly. While God, religion, illness, love, and death emerge from a reality perhaps more bitter than imagined, the protagonist, despite her uncertainties and fears, manages to overcome this early perception of her thanks to the stimulation of the written word and to an innate and imaginative rebellion. The protagonist narrates with emotional and genuine pride about her childhood fears, a strict and restricted upbringing, the learning process, her introduction to literature, small discoveries, body changes, leaving the family home, and the obstacles of love. | El Prestigio De La Belleza / Beauty's Prestige by Piedad Bonnett, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
