About the Book

Rebeldía, pasión por la literatura, feminismo y libertad sexual.

La historia de una mujer singular. Sergio Ramírez investiga la historia de una mujer costarricense, Amanda Solano, que publicó una única novela y que nunca obtuvo el reconocimiento de sus paisanos.

«La maldición de Amanda fue su genialidad. Hizo todo lo que pudo como mujer para disimular su condición de ángel

Tres voces femeninas nos relatan la vida dramática de una mujer que eligió el oficio maldito de escribir en una sociedad cerrada y provinciana. Tres voces, tres maneras de concebir la vida, la amistad y el amor, pero todas con un denominador común: contarnos quién fue la deseada y envidiada Amanda Solano.

Estas voces, cada una con su propio registro, nos devolverán a la Costa Rica de la primera mitad del siglo pasado, y así descubriremos a un personaje marcado por su belleza y su genio, por su desafiante sentido de la libertad, y por la mayor de sus debilidades: los hombres. En una convulsa época en que a las mujeres les era denegada la elección de sus opciones en la vida, a Amanda Solano no le quedó otro camino que el exilio, dentro y fuera de su propio país.

Sergio Ramírez asume el reto de poner voz a tres personajes femeninos dispares, y lo hace con un estilo sencillo y emotivo que nos hará cómplices de la historia de esta mujer singular que vivió de su leyenda y murió sintiéndose olvidada por todos. Aún hoy, su tumba sigue marcada apenas por un número.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Rebellion, a passion for literature, feminism, and sexual freedom.

Sergio Ramírez, 2017 Cervantes Prize winner, examines the story of Amanda Solano, a Costa Rican woman who published a unique novel for which she never gained a much-deserved recognition.

Three female voices narrate the dramatic life of a woman who chose the cursed life of a writer in a rural and closed-minded society. Three voices, three ways of perceiving life, friendships, and love, but all with a common denominator: to tell us who the desired and envied Amanda Solano was.

These voices, each with their own recollection, will take us back to Costa Rica at the beginning of the last century, and thus we will discover a character marked by her beauty and personality, by her defiant sense of freedom, and by her greatest weakness: men.

Sergio Ramírez gives a voice to three different female characters, and he does it with a simple and emotional style that will make us witnesses to the story of a unique woman who lived from her fame and died feeling forgotten by all. Even today, her tomb is still scarcely marked by a number
