From RuPaul’s Drag Race winner and host of HBO’s We’re Here comes an inventive, wondrous novel about American hero Harriet Tubman that remixes history into a fresh, dynamic novel about love, freedom, salvation, and music. In an age of miracles where our greatest heroes from history have magically, unexplainably returned to shake us out of our confusion and hate, Harriet Tubman is back, and she has a lot to say. Harriet Tubman and four of the enslaved persons she led to freedom want to tell their story in a unique way—by following in the footsteps of Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Hamilton. Harriet wants to put on a show about her life, and she needs a songwriter to help her. She calls upon Darnell Williams, a once successful hip-hop producer who was topping the charts before being outed by a rival at the BET Awards. Darnell has no idea what to expect when he steps into the studio with Harriet, only that they have one week to write a Broadway caliber musical she can take on the road. Over the course of their time together, they not only mount a show that will take the country by storm, but confront the horrors of both their pasts, and learn to find a way to a better future. Original, evocative, and historic, Harriet Live in Concert is a landmark achievement that will burrow deep into our hearts (and ears).

A las mujeres que protagonizan estos relatos el mundo les había reservado una felicidad circunscrita a las paredes de su casa. Pero más allá de la dedicación a su marido, la cocina y los niños, siguen latiendo sus singulares personalidades y, llegado el momento, reconocerán la señal reservada para que cada una de ellas dé un giro a su vida. Una se enamora del mar y se marcha en su busca, otra pare en el hospital y abandona al marido enamorado de la doctora. Ángeles Mastretta retrata la fuerza del carácter de mujeres que nacieron con estrella, y nos muestra un universo de emancipación y sabiduría. En Mujeres de ojos grandes, lo femenino irrumpe en la cultura para ensanchar sus límites e iluminar el camino. La inteligencia y la complicidad que irradia la prosa de Ángeles Mastretta convierten estas historias minúsculas en adictivas narraciones de magistral sencillez. Con un millón de lectores, Mujeres de ojos grandes constituye una de las muestras más personales y creativas de la literatura actual escrita en español.
