Las chicas (Spanish Edition)
Emma Cline 路 2016
California. Verano de 1969. Evie, una adolescente insegura y solitaria a punto de adentrarse en el incierto mundo de los adultos, se fija en un grupo de chicas en un parque: visten de un modo descuidado, van descalzas y parecen vivir felices y despreocupadas, al margen de las normas. D铆as despu茅s, un encuentro fortuito propiciar谩 que una de esas chicas ?Suzanne, unos a帽os mayor que ella? la invite a acompa帽arlas. Viven en un rancho solitario y forman parte de una comuna que gira alrededor de Russell, m煤sico frustrado, carism谩tico, manipulador, l铆der, gur煤. Fascinada y perpleja, Evie se sumerge en una espiral de drogas psicod茅licas y amor libre, de manipulaci贸n mental y sexual, que le har谩 perder el contacto con su familia y con el mundo exterior. Y la deriva de esa comuna que deviene secta dominada por una creciente paranoia desembocar谩 en un acto de violencia bestial, extremo? Esta novela es obra de una debutante que, dada su juventud, ha dejado boquiabierta a la cr铆tica por la inusitada madurez con la que cincela la compleja psicolog铆a de sus personajes. Emma Cline construye un retrato excepcional de la fragilidad adolescente y del tormentoso proceso de hacerse adulto. Tambi茅n aborda el tema de la culpa y las decisiones que nos marcar谩n toda la vida. Y recrea aquellos a帽os de paz y amor, de idealismo hippie, en los que germinaba un lado oscuro, muy oscuro. La autora se inspira libremente en un episodio c茅lebre de la cr贸nica negra americana: la matanza perpetrada por Charles Manson y su clan. Pero lo que le interesa no es la figura del psic贸pata demoniaco, sino algo mucho m谩s perturbador: aquellas chicas angelicales que cometieron un crimen atroz y sin embargo durante el juicio no perd铆an la sonrisa? Sobre ellas ?驴qu茅 les llev贸 a traspasar los l铆mites?, 驴cu谩les fueron las consecuencias de unos actos que las perseguir谩n siempre?? versa esta novela que deslumbra e inquieta.

From their earliest days, children of aristocrats learn how to address an earl and curtsey before a prince鈥攚hile other dictates of the ton are unspoken yet universally understood.

But no one truly desires her. She is simply too deuced honest for that, too unwilling to play the romantic games that captivate gentlemen. Amiability is not a characteristic shared by Simon Basset, Duke of Hastings.

Yet an encounter with his best friend鈥檚 sister offers another option. If Daphne agrees to a fake courtship, Simon can deter the mamas who parade their daughters before him. Daphne, meanwhile, will see her prospects and her reputation soar. The plan works like a charm鈥攁t first.
