Description

Una historia de las mujeres que han encarnado el mal, llena de humor e inteligencia, por la autora de Frida Kahlo y El placer, con más de 200.000 lectores
TODAS #MALASMUJERES
UNO DE LOS DIEZ LIBROS MÁS ESPERADOS DE 2022 SEGÚN ESQUIRE
NI LOCAS, NI TONTAS, NI PROVOCADORAS, NI FATALES:
¡MUJERES, BIENVENIDAS AL AQUELARRE!
Desde la aparición de los primeros mitos, lo universal ha sido la narración de los hombres, esa visión masculina que dibujó a unos y a otras, nos dijo cómo debíamos ser -puras, dóciles, amorosas- y previno al mundo de las malas mujeres, ya fueran vengativas gorgonas, crueles madrastras, problemáticas Pandoras o Evas incautas que cargaron con la culpa de nuestro destino.
En su personalísima versión, María Hesse da una vuelta de tuerca a esas princesas pasivas, brujas perversas, malas madres, femmes fatales, locas pasionales y secundarias perfectas, y, de Madame Bovary a Sarah Connor, de Juana «la Loca» a Yoko Ono, de Helena de Troya a Monica Lewinsky, de Medusa a Zahara o a Nevenka, reivindica la necesidad de encontrar otros referentes, nuevas lecturas de la Historia e inspiración para ser simplemente mujeres en el mundo en que vivimos.
«Ahora sabemos que no hay que tener miedo a salirse de esas líneas caprichosas que otros marcaron, y que las que abrieron esas grietas buscando otros horizontes no estaban locas, ni eran perversas ni malos ejemplos para otras. Si acaso fueron mujeres valientes, fuertes, atrevidas, decididas. Rompedoras. Y si las llaman malas mujeres que se lo llamen; las paredes han caído y nosotras ya no estaremos ahí para oírlo». —María Hesse
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A story of women who have embodied evil, full of humor and intellect, by the author of Frida Kahlo and Pleasure, with more than 200,000 readers.
ONE OF THE TEN MOST AWAITED BOOKS OF 2022 ACCORDING TO ESQUIRE
Since the arrival of the first myths, the narrative told by men has been universally accepted, that masculine vision that drew up people, told us how we should be -pure, docile, loving- and warned the world of bad women, whether they were vengeful gorgons, cruel stepmothers, troublesome Pandoras, or unsuspecting Eves who took the blame for our fate.
In her very personal version, María Hesse gives a twist to those passive princesses, perverse witches, bad mothers, femmes fatales, and passionate madwomen; and from Madame Bovary to Sarah Connor, from Juana ‘la Loca’ to Yoko Ono, from Helen of Troy to Monica Lewinsky, from Medusa to Zahara or Nevenka, vindicates the need to find other models, new readings of History and inspiration to simply be women in the world in which we live.
“Now we know that we shouldn’t be afraid to step outside of those lines that others created, and that those who opened those small cracks looking for other horizons were not crazy, nor were they perverse or bad examples for others. If anything, they were brave, strong, daring, determined women. Pioneers. And if they call them bad women, let them; the walls have fallen, and we will no longer be there to hear it.” —Maria Hesse
