Synopsis "Veronica (Spanish Edition) (in Spanish)"

Un soberbio relato sobre la fragilidad y el misterio de las relaciones humanas. Finalista del National Book Award and National Book Critics Circle Award Alison, hermosa adolescente, es descubierta casualmente por un fotógrafo que no tarda en arrastrarla al mundo de la moda y la pasarela. De su natal San Francisco viaja a Europa, donde desarrolla una carrera fulminante. El final de su trayectoria profesional coincide con el fracaso de su relación amorosa, y Alison se traslada a Nueva York para construir una nueva vida. Allí conoce a Veronica, una excéntrica mujer algunos años mayor que ella. Contra todo pronóstico, las dos mujeres se hacen amigas. Su amistad sobrevivirá no solo a la reincorporación de Alison al mundo de la moda, sino también el terrible descenso de Veronica al por entonces desconocido infierno del sida. El recuerdo de su amistad continuará persiguiendo a Alison años después, cuando ella también envejece y enferma y se cuestiona el significado de lo que experimentó y en qué se convirtió durante aquella época. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A finalist for the National Book Award and National Book Critics Circle Award, here is an evocative novel about female friendship in the glittering 1980s. Alison and Veronica meet amid the nocturnal glamour of 1980s New York: One is a young model stumbling away from the wreck of her career, the other an eccentric middle-aged office temp. Over the next twenty years their friendship will encompass narcissism and tenderness, exploitation and self-sacrifice, love and mortality. Moving seamlessly from present and past, casting a fierce yet compassionate eye on two eras and their fixations, the result is a work of timeless depth and moral power.
