Book excerpt: La autora emprende un viaje al interior en un juego narrativo lleno de sorpresas. En él se mezclan literatura y vida en un cóctel afrodisíaco de biografías ajenas y autobiografía novelada. Y, así, descubrimos que el gran Goethe adulaba a los poderosos hasta extremos ridículos, que Tolstoi era un energúmeno, que Montero, de niña, fue una enana, y que, con veinte años, mantuvo un estrafalario y desternillante romance con un famoso actor. Pero no deberíamos fiarnos de todo lo que la autora cuenta sobre sí misma: los recuerdos no son siempre lo que parecen.Un libro sobre la fantasía y los sueños, sobre la locura y la pasión, sobre los miedos y las dudas de los escritores, pero también de los lectores. El libro es, sobre todo, la tórrida historia de amor y salvación que hay entre Rosa Montero y su imaginación.

Download or read book Ambiguous Angels written by Catherine Jagoe and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-04-28 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contradictory nature of the work of Benito Pérez Galdós, Spain's greatest modern novelist, is brought to the fore in Catherine Jagoe's innovative and rigorous study. Revising commonly held views of his feminism, she explores the relation of Galdós's novels to the "woman question" in Spain, arguing that after 1892 the muted feminist discourse of his early work largely disappears. While his later novels have been interpreted as celebrations of the emancipated new woman, Jagoe contends that they actually reinforce the conservative, bourgeois model of frugal, virtuous womanhood—the angel of the house. Using primary sources such as periodicals, medical texts, and conduct literature, Jagoe's examination of the evolution of feminism makes Ambiguous Angels valuable to anyone interested in gender, culture, and narrative in nineteenth-century Europe.
