«Es muy raro ver que las manos de tu madre acaricien la cara de su amante. Que le peinen la barba. Es raro también que los ojos que antes vigilaban todo hayan renunciado al mundo como si le dijeran: puedes seguir sin mí.»

Un día cualquiera, a finales de los años setenta, la protagonista abrió la puerta de su casa y vio cómo su madre se iba en una motocicleta Harley-Davidson con su vecino: un extravagante pintor y lector de cartas zodiacales. Muchos años después, narra a su hija las circunstancias que llevaron a esa partida y también las que la precedieron en un relato que reúne a tres generaciones de mujeres y casi seis décadas de acontecimientos históricos (desde los movimientos estudiantiles del 68 hasta la pandemia actual, pasando por las dictaduras y la caída del Muro de Berlín, la globalización y las pantallas): una mirada subversiva y feminista del país y del mundo durante ese periodo. Una vida fuera de lo común, sorprendente y conmovedora, pero desprovista de sentimentalismos.

Con inteligencia narrativa, sentido del humor y una visión nostálgica de un mundo que se fue, Rosa Beltrán nos regala un relato intimista y deslumbrante que encontrará eco en varias generaciones de lectores que han vivido, de una forma u otra, lo que se cuenta.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"It's very rare to see your mother's hands caress her lover's face. Comb his beard. It's also rare that the eyes that once watched everything have renounced the world as if they were saying: you can go on without me."

On any given day, in the late 1970s, the protagonist opened the door of her house and saw her mother go off on a Harley-Davidson motorcycle with her neighbor: an extravagant painter and reader of zodiac charts. Many years later, she recounts to her daughter the circumstances that led to that departure, and also those that preceded it, in a story that brings together three generations of women and almost six decades of historical events (from the student movements of '68 to the current pandemic, going through dictatorships and the fall of the Berlin Wall, globalization and screens): a subversive and feminist look at the country and the world during that period. A life out of the ordinary, surprising and moving, but devoid of sentimentality.

With narrative intelligence, a sense of humor and a nostalgic vision of a world that is gone, Rosa Beltrán gives us an intimate and dazzling story that will find an echo in several generations of readers who've lived, in one way or another, what is being told.

Love all the Barkbox toys
Color: Christmas Consuela, Size: Large Dog
This is our third "Consuela"! Our dogs LOVE these toys, and they are the most durable we can find for our heavy chewers. They really like the ball inside as well. Highly, highly recommend these toys. I won't be buying other toys anymore, just barkbox.

My dog is a toy destroyer
Color: Consuela the Cactus - Large, Size: Large Dog, Color: Consuela the Cactus - Large, Size: Large Dog
I’ve had a hard time trying to find toys that my dog, Zara loves because she’s actually very picky. Ive gotten plenty of Kong toys that are well known to be indestructible but she wants nothing to do with them. Then I got her ropes and that seemed to be good for a while until she was getting sick in the middle of the night from eating all of the string. Stuffed toys aren’t good because she’ll rip them within seconds and eat all of the stuffing. I felt like I’ll never score the perfect toy for her. I found the three layered cactus toy and decided to give it a go. It’s clearly designed to be ripped and destroyed to get the ball in the middle which is actually really cute and fun to see all of the layers. The cactus arms have stuffing and of course that’s the first thing she went for and ate. I had to watch her and make sure I took the stuffing away before she ate it. And before I knew it, she ate half of the first layer fabric lol once she got through the first layer, all she’s been doing is walking around the house with the toy in her mouth. But now she’s tired and passed out on the couch from all of the fun. This toy won’t last long with a toy destroyer but it sure does give them something to do and it’s a cute toy. I do recommend!!

Last a while. Will be buying more toys soon.
Color: Consuela the Cactus - Large, Size: Large Dog
Best dog toy I have ever bought. I have three dogs, two at the time I bought this toy. It took them over a year to break through the first layer. The flower comes off first so be careful your dog doesn't swallow it. It still has the second layer so it still looks like a cactus. No stuffing to clean up when they tear into it, which makes it far less messy than other toys. One of my dogs is obsessed with fetch so I use it like a ball inside. The oval shape makes it hard to ensure when it bounces that it will bounce straight. It's bounced into walls and other stuff that I wasn't intending it to hit. Not much of a squeak so I can let them play with it for hours and I don't get annoyed with the noise. Great toy that lasts a while.

Nice Value
Color: Consuela the Cactus - Large, Size: Large Dog
Very cute! Its soft and feels like it is well made. It is a heavier toy and a tougher one. Not a plush toy. I will order again for our older dogs. Nice value for sure!
