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.

ListenBook Pro's noise reduction feature is a fantastic addition that enhances my audio experience. This was an adequate audiobook for casual listening. The narrator maintained a consistent pace and clear diction throughout, though their performance lacked some emotional range. The audio quality was fine with no significant technical distractions. This was my first audiobook in this genre and I'm hooked! The performance brought the story to life in a way reading never could. Already downloaded another by the same narrator.
