Summary
In the not-too-distant-future, in a country mired in an economic and social crisis, at a time when thousands of unemployed people crowd into tents in front of corporate offices and incredibly long lines form in welfare offices and social care centers, the system continues to find ways to exploit the weak for the benefit of a privileged few in this compelling novel. But in the face of a group of unscrupulous financiers and politicians united by the same interest in dominating and controlling society, an anarchist movement is born out of spontaneous rebellious groups and gains popular support. Three women in particular face off against those in power in the midst of the biggest economic crisis in Spain’s history, one that has surpassed all expectations and in which most citizens suffer due to decisions made for the benefit of the most powerful few.
En un futuro cercano, en un país convulso por la crisis económica y social, mientras miles de parados se apiñan en tiendas de campaña frente a las principales instituciones y larguísimas colas se forman en las oficinas de empleo y centros de atención social, el sistema sigue consiguiendo maneras de explotar a los débiles para generar más riqueza para unos pocos en esta absorbente novela. Pero frente a un grupo de financieros y políticos sin escrúpulos unidos por el mismo interés de dominar y controlar la sociedad, un movimiento antisistema nace de los grupos espontáneos de indignados y goza de apoyo popular. Tres mujeres en particular se enfrentan al poder en el marco de la peor crisis económica de la historia de España, una que ha desbordado todas las expectativas y en la que muchos ciudadanos sufren por los manejos en favor de los intereses financieros y políticos de los más poderosos.
