No me llames loca

It all starts the day that King Alfonso XIII visits Barcelona. Julia is the eldest daughter of a Catalan industrialist, but she soon realizes that it is her younger brother who will inherit everything and that she must marry whomever her father chooses, as a bargaining chip to maintain status in a society in crisis that neither the visit of the monarch can make up. It will be her paternal grandmother, Enriqueta, who will oversee her training, who will introduce her to the Popular Women's Library and who will introduce her to Francesca Bonnemaison, its founder, making the young woman one of the first students of the newly released school of librarians of Catalonia. While the Spain of the Restoration is sinking and Catalonia is expectant before the modernizing advances of the Commonwealth, the streets of Barcelona become a hornet's nest in which workers, grouped around anarchism, who fight to get better working conditions, and some businessmen who do not hesitate to resort to dirty warfare to contain workers' demands. In this social framework in which she has had to live, will Julia be able to achieve her goals as a person and woman or will she have to break the rigid seams of a society, that of the early twentieth century, patriarchal, religious, hyper-conservative and violent, to achieve it? Set in a fascinating historical period, Don't Call Me Crazy is a novel full of real characters such as General Miguel Primo de Rivera who led the coup of 1923, Governor Severiano Martínez Anido or the head of the general security inspection, Miguel Arlegui, among others, who masterfully shows us the social x-ray of an era.
