Summary

Una carta de amor a la adolescencia. Adictiva y descarada, más divertida y sexy que nunca, Mary Karr captura con agudeza el hambre y la emoción de una chica ante el mundo nuevo, sin estrenar, que se abre ante sus ojos. «Karr captura, con absoluta precisión, lo que significa para una adolescente besar al primer chico que le gusta... Cómo es comenzar la escuela secundaria... Lo que supone ser una joven hambrienta de libros, embelesada con las palabras y las ideas embriagadoras que ofrecen una liberación de las banalidades de la vida de un pueblo pequeño... Como ya hizo en "El club de los mentirosos", Karr combina el lirismo de una poeta y la lengua vernácula de un tejano con su don natural para contar historias». Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times

A love letter to adolescence. Addictive and sassy, funnier and sexier than ever, Mary Karr acutely captures a girl's hunger and excitement in the face of the brand-new world that opens before her eyes.
