Through the story of Cary Serrano, one of the most genuine female characters in recent Cuban narrative, the author constructs a story that, while fiercely Cuban, transcends borders to connect with any reader seeking intelligent, sharp, and unsweetened literature. This revised edition includes two additional stories that delve deeper into the feminine perspective on identity, desire, and creation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCary Serrano, a writer in an insidiously sexist environment, narrates her own story in an attempt to reconcile her literary vocation with the persistent search for the ideal man. Far from assuming the authoritative voice of radical feminism, Cary unfolds into friends, lovers, into Iluminada, into Beatriz, into a simple \"she\" in front of the mirror. The narrative oscillates between faith in the description proposed by Peter Handke and the desire to construct a coherent plot, giving rise to a multiplicity of styles: anecdotes, monologues, travel memoirs, photographs that come to life, and novel fragments. All this is built with a deep feminine gaze that navigates through the last two decades of Cuba and the world, showing the fissures of a woman who dares to show herself as she is.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain Themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe female condition in contemporary Cuba, without sweeteners or idealizations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe reconciliation between literary creation and social gender expectations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe search for love and the ideal man in a context marked by sexism.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe multiplicity of female identities and the fracture of the self before the mirror.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eNarrative hybridization as a reflection of a polyhedral and contradictory reality.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor readers interested in contemporary Latin American narrative with a critical and authentic view of women.
