Hardback. Zustand: Good. Startling and astringently poetic. --The New York Times An extraordinary account, in the tradition of The House on Mango Street, Child of the Dark, and Angela's Ashes, of a Colombian woman's harrowing childhood defined by uprootedness and migration Emma Reyes was an illegitimate child, raised in a windowless room in Bogot with no water or toilet and only ingenuity to keep her and her sister alive. Abandoned by her mother, she moved with her sister to a Catholic convent, where she scrubbed floors and mended garments for the nuns--and lived in fear of the Devil. Illiterate and knowing nothing of the outside world, she escaped at age nineteen, eventually establishing a career as an artist, befriending the likes of Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera as well as European artists and intellectuals, and being encouraged in her writing by Gabriel Garc a M rquez. Comprised of letters written over the course of thirty years, this astonishing memoir describes in painterly detail the remarkable courage and limitless imagination of a young girl growing up with nothing. Discovered only after Reyes's death, it reveals a gifted writer whose talent remained hidden for far too long. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,800 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.…
