Overview

Los 100 mejores libros del 2024 de Time Magazine

Un año en la vida de la inolvidable Catalina Ituralde, una estudiante terriblemente sardónica y desgarradoramente vulnerable en un colegio de élite, obligada a navegar un pasado opaco, un futuro incierto, tragedias en dos continentes y las tentadoras posibilidades del amor y la libertad.


Cuando aceptan a Catalina en Harvard, se siente como si el destino se cumpliera: una niña milagro que escapa de la muerte en Latinoamérica, se muda a Queens para ser criada por sus abuelos indocumentados y se convierte en una de las elegidas. Pero nada es así de simple para Catalina, y mucho menos su propia mente complicada, contradictoria y despiadadamente inquisitiva. Ya en su último año, de cara a graduarse para salir a un mundo que no tiene lugar para los indocumentados, su sensación de fatalismo intensifica sus curiosidades y sus deseos. Catalina infiltra las subculturas de élite de la escuela —pasantías y revistas literarias, fiestas elegantes y sociedades secretas—, las cuales observa con el ojo de una antropóloga y el escepticismo de una intrusa; fascinada y asqueada a la vez. Deseosa de vivir un gran romance, Catalina se siente atraída hacia un compañero, un antropólogo real en ciernes que no puede esperar para contarle del mundo latinoamericano donde ella nació, pero no ha conocido, aunque su vida en Queens se empieza a desmoronar. Y todos los días, el reloj camina más cerca del abismo que será su vida después de la graduación. ¿Podrá salvar a su familia? ¿Podrá salvarse a sí misma? ¿Qué significa ser salvada?
 
Atrevida y audaz, en parte novela de campus, en parte hagiografía, en parte canción pop, Catalina no se parece a ninguna novela sobre la pérdida de la inocencia que hayas leído... y Catalina, brillante y trágica, rodeada por un nimbo de energía caótica, impulsada por un corazón salvaje, es un personaje que nunca olvidarás.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Time's 100 Must-Read Books of 2024

A year in the life of the unforgettable Catalina Ituralde, a wickedly wry and heartbreakingly vulnerable student at an elite college, forced to navigate an opaque past, an uncertain future, tragedies on two continents, and the tantalizing possibilities of love and freedom.

When Catalina is admitted to Harvard, it feels like the fulfilment of destiny: a miracle child escapes death in Latin America, moves to Queens to be raised by her undocumented grandparents, and becomes one of the chosen. But nothing is simple for Catalina, least of all her own complicated, contradictory, ruthlessly probing mind. Now a senior, she faces graduation to a world that has no place for the undocumented; her sense of doom intensifies her curiosities and desires. She infiltrates the school’s elite subcultures—internships and literary journals, posh parties and secret societies—which she observes with the eye of an anthropologist and an interloper’s skepticism: she is both fascinated and repulsed. Craving a great romance, Catalina finds herself drawn to a fellow student, an actual budding anthropologist eager to teach her about the Latin American world she was born into but never knew, even as her life back in Queens begins to unravel. And every day, the clock ticks closer to the abyss of life after graduation. Can she save her family? Can she save herself? What does it mean to be saved?
 
Brash and daring, part campus novel, part hagiography, part pop song, Catalina is unlike any coming-of-age novel you’ve ever read—and Catalina, bright and tragic, circled by a nimbus of chaotic energy, driven by a wild heart, is a character you will never forget.
