La corta e intensa vida de Julia de Burgos en la voz de una escritora que nos revela otro rostro de la ic???nica poeta puertorrique???a. Novela ganadora de la beca John S. Guggenheim "Es un libro que habla de la discriminaci???n, los deseos y los miedos, del fulgor y el furor de la vida, del horror de la vejez, del v???nculo entre madres e hijas y, sobre todo, de la dignidad de haber sido consideradas indignas". --Rosa Montero, escritora galardonada con una amplia obra La escritora ha publicado una biograf???a sobre la emblem???tica y controversial Julia de Burgos. Con su libro, recorre diferentes ciudades, asiste a presentaciones y da conferencias mientras intenta mantener su familia a flote. Lo que empieza como un simple encargo, escribir sobre Julia, terminar??? siendo una manera de entender mejor al personaje y su obra, pero tambi???n un mapa para entender la vida de tantas autoras latinoamericanas, incluso la propia. Paralelismos, intereses y valores comunes, o ser dos escritoras afrocaribe???as que se abren paso en los elitistas c???rculos literarios, tejen el di???logo entre ambas voces. Esta es la historia de dos mujeres que hacen de la literatura un lugar de resistencia y libertad. " La otra Julia es una canci???n de una artista a otra, un agradecimiento y celebraci???n de ambas vidas, distintas pero conectadas por el arte. ???Bravo!". --Esmeralda Santiago, autora de los bestseller Las madres y Cuando era puertorrique???a , entre otros "Mayra Santos-Febres traza un paralelo entre dos escritoras: dos mujeres negras en una isla 'azotada por huracanes, olvido y pobreza' que retan al destino, se sobreponen a las adversidades y saben brillar". --Pilar Quintana, autora de las novelas galardonadas Los abismos (Premio Alfaguara) y La perra. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The short and intense life of Julia de Burgos as told by an author who shows us another side of the iconic Puerto Rican poet. Winner of a John S. Guggenheim fellowship The author has published a biography of the famous and controversial Julia de Burgos. She embarks on a book tour of different cities, attends presentations and gives talks, all while trying to keep her family afloat. What begins as a simple assignment, to write about Julia, becomes an entry point to better understand the poet and her work, but also a framework for exploring the lives of other female Latin American writers, including the author's own. Parallel interests and shared values as two Afro-Caribbean authors breaking into elite literary circles bridge the dialogue between the two voices. This is the story of two women who find resistance and freedom in literature.
