Product Information

Caballos salvajes nos descubre los or genes de la disfuncional familia Walls. Si en El castillo de cristal los ni os nos conmovieron con su fortaleza y sus ganas de vivir, en esta precuela ser Lily Casey Smith, su abuela, la que nos brinde su tenacidad y perseverancia ante las dificultades que atraves en el camino de su vida. Hero na y pionera en el Lejano Oeste americano, Lily vivi durante sus casi primeros diez a os en una caseta del desierto de Texas. A pesar de la extrema pobreza en que subsist a con sus padres, no tard en convertirse en una joven maestra de un pueblo situado a 28 d as a caballo, lo que supondr a el principio de una sucesi n de desaf os en una tierra de promesas y a la vez de grandes adversidades. Tras casarse con un hombre b gamo, lo abandona para irse con otro hombre due o de un rancho con el que tiene dos hijos -uno de ellos es Rose Mary Walls, la madre de El castillo de cristal-, y durante todo este tiempo se convertir en jinete de rodeo, en domadora de caballos, en una despiadada jugadora de p quer y har lo imposible porque ella y su familia sobrevivan, con su af n de superaci n y su encendida defensa de la libertad de la mujer a principios del siglo XX. Jeannette Walls quer a escribir sobre la infancia de su madre, pero la vida de su abuela termin imponi ndose. Al final, todo tiene una explicaci n... Rese a: Walls recibi el mejor regalo que se le puede hacer a una escritora: una familia disfuncional empaquetada con excentricidades. ...] Caballos salvajes es el cuento de otra sard nica pariente de esp ritu libre: su abuela materna Lily Casey Smith . USA Today ENGLISH DESCRIPTION For the first 10 years of her life, Lily Casey Smith, the narrator of this true-life novel by her granddaughter, Walls, lived in a dirt dugout in west Texas. Walls, whose mega selling memoir, The Glass Castle, recalled her own upbringing, writes in what she recalls as Lily's plainspoken voice, whose recital provides plenty of drama and suspense as she ricochets from one challenge to another. Having been educated in fits and starts because of her parents' penury, Lily becomes a teacher at age 15 in a remote frontier town she reaches after a solo 28-day ride. Marriage to a bigamist almost saps her spirit, but later she weds a rancher with whom she shares two children and a strain of plucky resilience. (They sell bootleg liquor during Prohibition, hiding the bottles under a baby's crib.) Lily is a spirited heroine, fiercely outspoken against hypocrisy and prejudice, a rodeo rider and fearless breaker of horses, and a ruthless poker player. Assailed by flash floods, tornados and droughts, Lily never gets far from hardscrabble drudgery in several states--New Mexico, Arizona, Illinois--but hers is one of those heartwarming stories about indomitable women that will always find an audience.

Book was listed as 'very good' condition, but when it arrived the cover had stains, creases and folds, and a small tear on one edge. It was packaged ok and the packaging was not damaged, so this was not something that happened during shipping. I messaged them and they replied quickly and instructed me to initiate a return through eBay. I was refunded the full price in less than an hour. Great customer service!
