Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. UNA PODEROSA NOVELA. UNA FASCINANTE UTOPIA DE COMIENZOS DEL SIGLO XX Por una autora revelacion de la literatura latinoamericana, elogiada por la critica y por escritoras como Clara Obligado, Ariana Harwicz o Marina Yuszczuk. Una de las novelas mas interesantes que he leido este ano. Rodrigo Rey Rosa Veronica es una profesora argentina radicada en Paris que esta profesionalmente estancada y acaba de tener un hijo. El amor incondicional que siente por el no alcanza para borrar la sensacion de que ser madre ha quebrado su libertad. En medio de esta crisis, decide indagar en un tema sobre el que piensa escribir un libro: las vidas de unas mujeres que la interpelan. Ellas formaron parte de un suceso real poco conocido: la creacion de una comunidad naturista a inicios del siglo XX en Suiza que promovio movimientos tan vigentes hoy como el feminismo, la libertad sexual, el poliamor o el antibelicismo. Ellas tambien buscaron una utopia, fueron hippies antes del 68, se dedicaron al arte, a la danza y a la literatura. Fueron las brujas de Monte Verita. Para avanzar con su investigacion y alejarse de casa, Veronica emprende un viaje con dos amigas a las montanas de Ascona. Alli, una serie de descubrimientos la llevan a replantearse su propio camino. Combinando la ficcion y el ensayo, Las brujas de Monte Verita imbrica las historias de unas mujeres que, separadas en tiempos y geografias, persiguen un mismo ideal y reflexionan acerca de las trampas del amor y la maternidad. Una novela apasionante sobre atreverse a ser libre y sobre como el pasado puede mostrar la forma de lograrlo en el presente.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONA POWERFUL NOVEL. A FASCINATING EARLY TWENTIETH-CENTURY UTOPIA. By a new voice in Latin American literature hailed by critics and fellow authors such as Clara Obligado, Ariana Harwicz and Marina Yuszczuk. Veronica is a professor from Argentina living in Paris and in a career rut. A new mother, her unconditional love for her baby cant make up for the feeling that becoming a parent has effectively ended her freedom. She distracts herself by researching a subject she has considered turning into a book: the lives of a fascinating group of women who were the protagonists of a little-known episode in history. In the early twentieth century, Monte Verita in Switzerland was home to an alternative, back-to-nature community that espoused trends that were ahead of their time, including feminism, sexual freedom, polyamory and pacifism. The women who founded it were in search of a utopia; hippies decades before the 1960s, they devoted themselves to art, dance and literature, becoming known as the Witches of Monte Verita. To continue her research and find an escape from domestic routine, Veronica invites two friends to join her on a trip to the mountains of Ascona, the site of the experimental community. There, she makes a series of discoveries that cause her to reframe her own live. A combination of fiction and essay, The Witches of Monte Verita interweaves the stories of women who, while separated by time and geography, strive for the same ideal and reflect on the constraints of love and motherhood. This is a passionate novel about daring to be free, and how lessons from the past can help make this possible.
