hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Most of our very good books have only minor imperfections such as shelf wear consistent with a new book that's sat on a bookshop shelf for a year or two. Occasionally we may miss other minor imperfections as we have to grade books at speed. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. El silencio, lejos de proteger a ninguna mujer, empodera a su abusador. Por eso Laura Strego, reconocida ilustradora feminista, ha querido alzar su voz para denunciar los abusos sexuales que sufrió desde los 12 a los 17 años de J. J. R. M, un amigo de su hermano que le rompió lo más sagrado que se puede tener: la inocencia. ?Mi verdugo me marcó como se marca a una vaca. Como si fuera parte de su ganadería, decidió que no había mejor Lolita para él que yo y que el entrepiso o la escalera de mi edificio eran los mejores lugares para hacer conmigo lo que quisiera. La niña del pelo largo a la que engatusó quedó muerta en vida desde entonces? Con este relato, lleno de dolor, pero también de fuerza y de denuncia, la artista, junto con la periodista Nuria Coronado, describen la realidad que a día de hoy vive el 20% de los menores de nuestro país, del cual cerca del 90% son niñas. Desde el grooming para engañarla, a la humillación constante, el maltrato sexual o el intento de suicidio que tuvo. También muestran la complicidad de una sociedad que en lugar de estigmatizar y perseguir a los abusadores mira a otro lado y se convierte así en victimaria. Hoy Strego no es la Lolita débil sino la mujer fuerte que mira a su abusador para decirle que no ganó la partida. ?Así reescribo el final del cuento. Soy yo la que sigue en pie. Soy una superviviente? *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente. No aceptamos pedidos con destino a Ceuta y Melilla.…
