Review
editThis book published in 2006 won the Premio Bartolomé Hidalgo revelation,[1] and was a great surprise in the Feria del libro de Uruguay (Uruguay the Book Exhibition).[2] Horacio López tells his experience from a perspective that is naturally very personal, observing, with rigour and a critical tone, the time period that she lived through from infancy to adolescence.[3] In 2009 a pocket edition was published.
