Condition: Como nuevo. : Ambientada en Carolina del Sur en 1964, 'La vida secreta de las abejas' cuenta la historia de Lily Owens, cuya vida ha sido moldeada en torno al recuerdo borroso de la tarde en que su madre fue asesinada. Cuando la enérgica madre negra sustituta de Lily, Rosaleen, insulta a tres de los racistas más crueles de la ciudad, Lily decide que ambas deben escapar a Tiburón, Carolina del Sur, un pueblo que guarda el secreto del pasado de su madre. Allí son acogidas por un excéntrico trío de hermanas negras apicultoras que introducen a Lily en un fascinante mundo de abejas, miel y la Virgen Negra que preside su hogar. Esta es una historia notable sobre el poder femenino divino y el poder transformador del amor, una historia que las mujeres compartirán y transmitirán a sus hijas durante años.
