Synopsis "Muñecas chinas (in Spanish)"

Lisa See, la aclamada autora de El abanico de seda, Dos chicas de Shanghái y Sueños de felicidad (Bruguera, 2012) ha conseguido el reconocimiento mundial por su maestría a la hora de retratar las intrincadas relaciones entre mujeres, siempre marcadas por el hilo invisible del destino. Pero nunca antes había ahondado en la amistad de tres mujeres.

Ahora nos ofrece la fascinante historia de tres chicas de muy distinto origen que, entre 1938 y 1948, luchan juntas por cumplir sus sueños en el club más glamuroso de San Francisco, hasta que el ataque japonés de Pearl Harbor, tan lejos de ellas, pone en peligro sus ambiciones, y hasta sus vidas, cuando una traición inesperada lo cambia todo.

Lisa See (Paris, 1955) is a renowned American novelist of Chinese descent, raised in Los Angeles within a family with deep roots in the local Chinatown. Her work focuses on exploring Asian history and culture, especially Chinese, through a female perspective. Among her most notable novels are The Silk Fan (2005), The Peony Pavilion (2008), Shanghai Girls (2010), China Dolls (2015), and The Island of Sea Women (2020). Additionally, she is the author of the non-fiction work On Gold Mountain (1995), where she narrates her family's history.

Her main literary genre is historical fiction, distinguished by her meticulous research and the representation of Asian cultures, particularly Chinese and Korean. Although she has received accolades such as the "National Woman of the Year" award from the Organization of Chinese Americans in 2001 and the "History Makers Award" from the Chinese American Museum in 2003, she is not credited with internationally renowned literary awards.
