«Me recuerda a Anaïs Nin. Es muy importante que leamos novelas como esta, centradas en el deseo y la sexualidad de la mujer.» -Luna Miguel

«Si no hubiera reivindicado su derecho al placer habría vivido dichosa o al menos tranquila hasta su muerte. Y, sin embargo, aún ahora consideraba intolerable la insatisfacción, ese estado de letargo sexual al cual la condenaba el matrimonio con Luis. La libertad tenía un precio y ella lo estaba pagando, duramente, de la peor manera que habría imaginado, pero después las puertas del mundo se le abrirían de par en par».

El tiempo de las amazonas recorre tres décadas de la vida de tres primas --Gaby, Virginia e Isabel-- que llegan a vivir a París en los años setenta. Su incesante exploración del deseo las llevará a tomar decisiones que tendrán un alto costo para sus vidas. Sus parejas, sus amantes y sus amigos forman parte de un universo narrativo que se mueve alrededor de las preocupaciones centrales de la obra de la autora: la madurez, el placer sexual, la amistad y la enfermedad.

Veinticinco años después de su muerte, Marvel Moreno vuelve a sorprendernos con esta, su segunda y última novela, una historia de mujeres que se adelantaron a su propio tiempo y que rompieron las estructuras para arriesgarlo todo por la libertad.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"She reminds me of Anaïs Nin. It's important that we read novels like this, centered in desire and women's sexuality." --Luna Miguel

"If she hadn't vindicated her right to feel pleasure, she would have lived blissfully, or at least at peace until her death. And, yet, even now she considered dissatisfaction intolerable, that state of sexual lethargy she was condemned to endure in her marriage to Luis. Freedom had a price, and she was paying it, harshly, in the worst way she could have possibly imagined. But afterwards, the doors to the world would be wide open for her."

The time of the Amazon runs along three decades in the life of three cousins --Gaby, Virginia, and Isabel-- living in Paris in the sixties. Their relentless exploration of desire will lead to decisions that will exact a heavy toll on their lives. Their partners, their lovers, and their friends make up a narrative universe that revolves around the main preoccupations in the author's work: maturity, sexual pleasure, friendship, and sickness.

Twenty-five years after her death, Marvel Moreno amazes us again with this, her second a final novel, a story about women ahead of their own time, who broke away from tradition in order to risk everything in the name of freedom.

A Timeless and Stylish Pea Coat - Perfect for Winter!
Size: X-Large, Color: Wine Red
The quality of this pea coat is exceptional. The wool blend material feels soft and luxurious, and the craftsmanship is evident in every stitch. The coat is well-constructed and designed to withstand the test of time. I have been wearing it throughout the winter season, and it has kept me warm and cozy even during the coldest days. The classic double-breasted design of the coat is timeless and versatile. It adds a touch of sophistication to any outfit, whether I'm wearing it for a formal event or a casual day out. The notched collar enhances the coat's elegance and provides a polished look. The fit of the coat is excellent. The sizing chart provided by the seller was accurate, and the coat fits me perfectly. The tailored cut gives it a flattering silhouette without feeling restrictive. It allows for comfortable layering, so I can wear sweaters or jackets underneath without any issues. One of the standout features of this pea coat is its attention to detail. The buttons are well-placed and secure, and the lining is smooth and comfortable against the skin. The deep pockets are a great addition and provide ample space for storing essentials like gloves or a phone.

Excellent Product!!!
Size: X-Small, Color: Black
Must buy item. I would buy a coat for every color they offer. The coat has four large pockets, two exterior and two interior pockets. All of which are large.

Really nice for the price!
Size: XX-Large, Color: Brown, Size: XX-Large, Color: Brown
This jacket is a really nice find for the price, my bf is 6’4, 350 and the XXL fit really well. It was a little tight in the bicep but other than that it fit well in the chest and in the waist. It falls just below the belt. It was really nicely made and I ended up wearing it at the end of the night (due to not bringing my own jacket in December in the snow) and it kept me pretty warm and was really nice and cozy! So if you’re looking for a pea coat / trench coat that isn’t $500 then definitely buy this one!

Almost great! But falls a little short
Size: Large, Color: Wine Red
It’s a great looking pea coat, but the stuffing/insulating material appeared to be lacking. Granted price is nice so one can only expect so much. I was willing to overlook this and then I tried it on - the fit was great except for the sleeves. I wear 32-33 sleeves and these must be 35-36. They swallow up my hands. It’s bummer because the maroon/wine color is so nice. I’ll be returning unfortunately

Great quality :-)
Size: X-Large, Color: Black, Size: X-Large, Color: Black
So I purchased a Nother pea coat from a box store that didn’t quite fit right and was not very flattering, so I returned it. I’m 6 foot tall 210 pounds with very wide shoulders and long arms so I decided to get an extra large. It’s slightly loose around the waist section, but I think that’s supposed to be that way considering you may wanna wear layers underneath. I may possibly get it tailored a little bit tired her, but the chest and arms fit great and the length is perfect. Great quality for the price and definitely a nice piece to the collection!
