Las inseparables gemelas DesireÌe y Stella Vignes, con su color niÌveo, sus ojos castanÌos y su cabello ondulado, son un buen ejemplo de ello. Tan distintas y tan iguales, decidieron huir juntas del diminuto pueblo creyendo que tambieÌn podriÌan escapar de su sangre. AnÌos despueÌs y ante la mirada atoÌnita de todos, DesireeÌ regresa acompanÌada de una ninÌa negra como el carboÌn. Hace tiempo que no sabe nada de Stella, despueÌs de que decidiera desaparecer y renunciar definitivamente a sus oriÌgenes para vivir otra vida como mujer de raza blanca. Aclamada como la digna heredera de Toni Morrison y James Baldwin, Brit Bennett es una de las grandes revelaciones de la literatura afroamericana de los uÌltimos tiempos. 520 $a "The Vignes twin sisters will always be identical. But after growing up together in a small, southern black community and running away at age sixteen, it's not just the shape of their daily lives that is different as adults, it's everything: their families, their communities, their racial identities. Ten years later, one sister lives with her black daughter in the same southern town she once tried to escape. The other secretly passes for white, and her white husband knows nothing of her past. Still, even separated by so many miles and just as many lies, the fates of the twins remain intertwined. What will happen to the next generation, when their own daughters' storylines intersect?"--!cProvided by publisher. 546 $a In Spanish.
