Juanita The Fantastic

We left everything behind to write a chapter of our lives, with no idea whether it would turn out good or bad.We thought we were just changing countries. Instead, we discovered someone we thought we knew.I wrote this book so I wouldn't forget. So I wouldn't forget her. So that our daughter, one day, could remember-and so that the mark she left on our lives would never fade away.A woman impossible to invent.These chronicles speak of tenderness, irony, annoyance, exhaustion, and compassion. They paint the portrait of a woman who lies, who loves, who overflows, who collapses, who exasperates, and who deeply moves us. Understanding Juanita requires patience. I don't claim to have succeeded. But through these pages, you will encounter a soul entirely unique in her madness, her love, and her contradictions.This is the story of an impossible cohabitation, of a blended family brought together by circumstances, and of a loneliness that suffocates as much as it begs for love. It is also, in the background, a glimpse into the history of Spanish women.Juanita is not a character: she is a whole world.If you love true stories written in the heat of the moment, if you are fascinated when reality outshines fiction, and if you look for authentic, raw voices... then this slice of life might just touch your heart.
