El libro de los anhelos

Ana is a young woman from a wealthy Jewish family with concerns and dreams. Her life changes when she meets Jesus, a rebellious young man who peacefully opposes the domination of Rome, who does not perform miracles but does help the poor and prostitutes and who becomes a leader almost despite himself. But what is told here is not the story we already know but that of women in a time when intelligence, wit and concern were the property of men. A feminist claim in a novel in which the wealth of historical details and the masterful setting lead the reader to a landscape a thousand times explored but which appears totally new.
