Description
Una absorbente historia que recupera el valioso legado de los indígenas cubanos a través de una intriga protagonizada por dos mujeres que, en distintas épocas, se enfrentan a la peligrosa codicia de los hombres. Un misterioso legado conecta un manuscrito escrito en el siglo XVI por Juana, una joven de origen judío que viajó a Cuba con su padre, perseguidos por la Inquisición, con Alicia Solomon, la experta en lenguas que se ve envuelta en un peligroso conflicto de intereses políticos durante las primeras elecciones democráticas cubanas. Dos mujeres de distintos siglos unidas por un secreto que puede alterar el futuro de la isla. Dos heroínas que deberán enfrentarse, cada una en su época, con la codicia y la barbarie de quienes son incapaces de comprender el auténtico y sabio legado de la madre tierra. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A gripping story that revives the rich legacy of indigenous Cubans through a mystery starring two women who face the dangerous desires of men during different eras. A mysterious legacy connects a manuscript written in the 16th century by Juana, a young woman of Jewish origin who travels to Cuba with her father as they are persecuted by the Inquisition, and Alicia Solomon, the language expert who finds herself involved in a dangerous conflict of political interests during Cubas first democratic elections. Two women from different centuries, united by a secret that can alter the future of the island. Two heroines who must face the greed and barbarity of those who are incapable of understanding the Earths true, wise legacy.
