Synopsis "Los Sueños Asequibles de Josefina Jarama / The Attainable Dreams of Josefina Jar AMA"

Una obra picaresca para los tiempos en los que cualquiera (no todos, cualquiera) puede llegar donde desee.«La novela de Guedán no puede ser más descacharrante ni más lúcida. Cuánto dolor y cuánto gozo, cuánto humor y cuánta empatía, en una novela rebosante de personajes y ambientes perfilados con profundidad multicolor y mala baba. No miren para otro lado. Esto no se lo pueden perder . --Marta Sanz«Guedán nos regala con su novela un travelling de la España reciente con una mirada tan tierna y humilde como pícara y política . --Elizabeth Duval « Qué pocas veces he tenido la razón! .Desde muy pequeña, Josefina Jarama sueña con una vida mejor y sabe que para llegar hasta ella solo hay una vía, cruda y pragmática: el ascenso social. Este Lazarillo moderno comienza su andadura en una fábrica de juguetes en Ibi, Alicante. Allí es la protegida del jefe y además trabaja junto a su madre, una comunista militante que opera en la clandestinidad y que deberá huir para que no la encarcelen. La protagonista ha de elegir entonces entre su madre o sus sueños en la fábrica, y elige. Con Josefina y su peripecia, el lector recorre varias décadas de nuestra historia reciente, diversos puntos calientes del «milagro español y, sobre todo, varias vidas. Animosa, descacharrante y única, Josefina hace realidad un sueño que no se ha propuesto: llegar al corazón. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A picaresque work for the times in which anyone (not everyone, anyone) can get where they want. "Guedan's novel cannot be more hilarious or more lucid. So much pain and so much joy, so much humor and so much empathy, in a novel brimming with characters and environments outlined with multicolored depth and spitefulness. Don't look the other way. You can't miss this." Martha Sanz "With his novel Guedan gives us a road trip through recent Spain with a look as tender and humble as it is mischievous and political." Elizabeth Duval "Very rarely have I been right!" From a very young age, Josefina Jarama dreams of a better life and knows that there is only one crude and pragmatic way to get there: social advancement. This modern Lazarillo begins her journey in a toy factory in Ibi, Alicante. There she's the boss' protégé and she also works with her mother, a militant communist who operates underground and who must flee to avoid imprisonment. The protagonist then must choose between her mother or her dreams in the factory, and she makes her choice. With Josefina and her adventures, the reader travels through several decades of our recent history, various hot spots of the "Spanish miracle" and, above all, several lives. Courageous, hilarious, and unique, Josefina makes a dream come true that she has not set out to do: to reach our hearts.
