Kitty Talbot needs a fortune. Or rather, she needs a husband who has a fortune. Left with her father’s massive debts, she has only twelve weeks to save her family from ruin. Kitty has never been one to back down from a challenge, so she leaves home and heads toward the most dangerous battleground in all of England: the London season. Kitty may be neither accomplished nor especially genteel—but she is utterly single-minded; imbued with cunning and ingenuity, she knows that risk is just part of the game. The only thing she doesn’t anticipate is Lord Radcliffe. The worldly Radcliffe sees Kitty for the mercenary fortune-hunter that she really is and is determined to scotch her plans at all costs, until their parrying takes a completely different turn…. This is a frothy pleasure, full of brilliant repartee and enticing wit–one that readers will find an irresistible delight.

In the late 1930s, civil war grips Spain. When General Franco and his Fascists succeed in overthrowing the government, hundreds of thousands are forced to flee in a treacherous journey over the mountains to the French border. Among them is Roser, a pregnant young widow, who finds her life intertwined with that of Victor Dalmau, an army doctor and the brother of her deceased love. In order to survive, the two must unite in a marriage neither of them desires. Together with two thousand other refugees, Roser and Victor embark on the SS Winnipeg, a ship chartered by the poet Pablo Neruda, to Chile: “the long petal of sea and wine and snow.” As unlikely partners, the couple embraces exile as the rest of Europe erupts in world war. Starting over on a new continent, they face trial after trial, but they will also find joy as they patiently await the day when they might go home. Through it all, their hope of returning to Spain keeps them going.

El contenido de este libro pone de manifiesto por lo que pasan docentes y directivos escolares al ser sometidos a presiones políticas, sindicales y religiosas mediante un lenguaje manipulador por quienes no les interesa el orden, la disciplina y que se cumpla con los criterios de calidad para una verdadera transformación social por medio de la educación en el sistema formal de enseñanza. Es la voz alzada y proclamada para que cese la injerencia de sectores que solo buscan sus propios beneficios, poniendo en juego el desarrollo y crecimiento de una sociedad que todavía cree el en poder que tiene una educación que garantice el buen vivir, apegada a las normas éticos morales, sin importar el credo religioso. Pues, el texto también destaca la discriminación hacia aquellos que profesan credos distintos al catolicismo. Es un homenaje a los valientes educadores que, a pesar de las adversidades, se esfuerzan por marcar la diferencia y educar a las futuras generaciones sin esperar reconocimiento o recompensas.
