Siete emotivos relatos protagonizados por mujeres que, en distintas edades y circunstancias, se enfrentan todas ellas, en algún momento, a hechos extraordinarios
Como insinúa el propio título, Modelos de mujer, estos siete relatos están todos protagonizados por mujeres que, en distintas edades y circunstancias, se enfrentan todas ellas, en algún momento, a hechos extraordinarios. Todos, menos el que da título al libro, están de un modo u otro ligados a la infancia, a la capacidad de desear como motor de la voluntad, de los actos de voluntad que las protagonistas deberán asumir para impedir que la vida las avasalle. En los tres primeros cuentos -«Los ojos rotos», «Malena, una vida hervida» y «Bárbara contra la muerte»-, los personajes femeninos vencen, cada uno a su manera, a la muerte: la pequeña Miguela, la mujer mongólica que se enamora de un fantasma; Malena, que se pasa la vida haciendo régimen por amor; y Bárbara, que acompaña a su abuelo a pescar. En los cuatro últimos -«El vocabulario de los balcones», «Amor de madre», «Modelos de mujer» y «La buena hija»-, las protagonistas tuercen el destino a su favor recurriendo unas al poder de seducción y otras a la fuerza de la razón, y todas con la voluntad que les otorga el firme deseo de no tolerar que la vida se les escape de las manos.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
