"The protagonist, a country girl who moves to Madrid to succeed as a writer and soon realizes a life of Netflix, iPhone, and designer coffee shops is not for her, bolsters an exciting tale upon memories, insights, and dialogues about a world that fades away, even for those that haven't lived it. A working-class family with a carny side and a rural one, a free childhood, and a youth full of questions and reassessments, told by a wild and personal voice that turned this book into a classic for thousands of readers."--Provided by publisher.
