Una historia poderosa. Una mujer valiente.

Un emocionante relato del pueblo gitano desde dentro.

La novela más ambiciosa de la maestra, tuitera y escritora Lola Cabrillana (@de_infantil).

Cada sábado de mercadillo, Mara acompaña a su padre en el puesto familiar. En ese entorno multicultural nadie cuestiona su identidad ni su valía. En cambio, en el instituto donde acaba de empezar a trabajar, sufre miradas de desdén por parte de sus compañeros.

Acostumbrada a luchar contra el estigma, esta profesora gitana no se dejará amedrentar y, ante sus nuevos alumnos, pondrá en valor la cultura y la historia de su pueblo. Sin embargo, cuando se entera de que dos de sus alumnas gitanas están a punto de abandonar los estudios, Mara se debatirá entre el respeto a sus raíces y esa rebeldía innata que siempre ha hecho que se cuestione algunas tradiciones.

Con una pluma sensible y honesta, Lola Cabrillana narra la valentía de una profesora que se rebela contra los estereotipos que sufre su comunidad y lucha por dignificar a la mujer gitana.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A powerful story. A brave woman.

An exciting tale of the gypsy people told from within.

The most ambitious novel by teacher, tweeter, and writer Lola Cabrillana (@de_infantil).

Every Saturday, Mara accompanies her father to the family stand at the market. In this multicultural environment, no one questions her identity or her worth. Instead, at the institute-- where she has just started working--she receives looks of disdain from her coworkers.

Accustomed to fighting against what others think of her, this gypsy teacher will not be intimidated; she will put the culture and history of her people in high grounds for her new students to see. However, when she finds out that two of her gypsy students are about to drop out, Mara will be torn between her roots and that innate rebellion that has always made her question some traditions.

With sensitive and honest writing, Lola Cabrillana narrates the courage of a teacher who rebels against the stereotypes that her community suffers and fights to dignify gypsy women.
