Book description
Con la frente marchita no es solo un libro de relatos: es un recorrido inusual por la historia de los cuerpos. Es una memoria personal y colectiva que reivindica la belleza de lo olvidado y lo inútil, un retrato de siete mujeres que sufrieron la incomprensión, el rechazo y el desprecio. Aunque las protagonistas tienen nombres que nos resultan familiares (Lolita Pluma, las dos Marías, la Junquera, Carmen de Mairena, Rosario Miranda y Mónica del Raval), en realidad es poco lo que conocemos sobre ellas. Dimas Prychyslyy nos va revelando con una prosa delicada y feroz tanto sus dramas cotidianos como el lado amargo de la libertad que siempre gozaron. Una obra que, siguiendo las enseñanzas de Jean Genet, demuestra que la sordidez puede convertirse en signo de grandeza.

Adjustable playback speed and volume control make for a customized experience. Not bad, but not amazing either. The narrator’s voice was pleasant, though some parts felt a bit rushed. The story had its moments, but I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it over similar titles in the genre.

ListenBook's compatibility with playlists and CUE files is a great addition for those who love organized listening. An unobjectionable but unexceptional audiobook experience.
