Una historia fascinante que narra la apasionada lucha por la libertad de dos mujeres negras en épocas distintas: la Cuba esclavista colonial y la España del siglo XXI.

Cuba, mediados del siglo XIX
A la isla caribeña arriba un barco portador de una siniestra carga. Más de setecientas mujeres y niñas secuestradas de su África natal llegan para trabajar, hasta la extenuación, en los campos de caña de azúcar y parir hijos que serán también esclavos. Kaweka es una de ellas, una muchacha que vivirá en primera persona el horror de la esclavitud en la hacienda del cruel marqués de Santadoma, pero que pronto demostrará a quienes la rodean que posee la facultad de comulgar con Yemayá. Esta es una diosa voluble que, en ocasiones, le concede el don de la curación y le proporciona la fuerza para liderar a sus hermanos de raza en la lucha por la libertad contra unos opresores que han logrado esclavizar sus cuerpos, pero no sus almas.

Madrid, época actual
Lita, una joven mulata, es hija de Concepción, la mujer que lleva toda la vida sirviendo en casa de los marqueses de Santadoma, en pleno barrio de Salamanca, al igual que hicieron sus antepasadas en la Cuba colonial. A pesar de tener estudios y ambición profesional, la precariedad laboral obliga a Lita a recurrir a los todopoderosos señores de Santadoma en busca de una oportunidad en la banca propiedad del marqués. A medida que se sumerge en las finanzas de la empresa y en el pasado de esta riquísima familia, la joven descubre los orígenes de su fortuna y decide emprender una batalla legal en favor de la dignidad y la justicia, que merecen tanto su madre como todas las mujeres que entregaron sus vidas al servicio de unos blancos que nunca las trataron como a iguales.

Una deslumbrante novela sobre dos mujeres valientes que combatirán, cada una con sus armas, el racismo y la injusticia, escrita por el autor español de novela histórica más importante de nuestro tiempo. Un rendido homenaje al papel de las mujeres en su lucha por la justicia y la libertad.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A fascinating story narrating two black women's passionate struggle for freedom in two different times--colonial-enslaved Cuba and twenty-first-century Spain.

Cuba, mid-nineteenth century
A ship bearing a sinister cargo reaches the Caribbean island. Over seven-hundred women and girls abducted from their native Africa arrive to work to exhaustion in the sugarcane fields and give birth to future slaves. Kaweka is among them, a young woman who will experience first hand the horror of slavery in the cruel Marquis of Santadoma's hacienda. But she will soon show those around her that she has the ability to communicate to Yemayá, a fickle goddess that at times grants her the gift of healing and gives her the strength to lead her brothers and sisters in their fight for freedom against the oppressors who have enslaved their bodies, but never their souls.

Madrid, present time
Lita, a young mulatto woman is Concepción's daughter, a woman who has spent her entire life working as a servant in the house of the marquises of Santadoma, right in the Salamanca district, just as her ancestors did before her in colonial Cuba. In spite of being an educated woman and having professional ambitions, work scarcity forces Lita to turn to the almighty sires of Santadoma for an opportunity at the bank owned by the marquis. As she goes deeper into the company's finances and the past of this wealthy family, she begins to uncover the origins of their fortune and decides to wage a legal battle in favor of dignity and justice for her mother and all the other women who gave their lives at the service of white people who never treated them as equals.

Written by the most relevant Spanish author of historical novels today, Slave of Freedom is a dazzling work about two brave women who fight racism and injustice, each with her own weapons. An homage to the role of women in the fight for justice and freedom.

Smells nice
Scent: Berry Bubbly, Size: 20 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This smells nice and is moisturizing but there really isn't any 'fizz' to it. It just foams up like normal soap. 3 pumps on a loofah is enough for a whole shower really, it's very lasting soap and makes for a nice clean feel. The smell doesn't last long after the shower though. Interesting product but most likely won't be buying again.

Olay Intensive hydrating body wash
Scent: Berry Bubbly, Size: 20 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I really love this body wash. It is so good for the body. The smell is a sweet odor, but not strong, just right. I saw where this is a limited product. I hope not, because it leaves me feeling like I put lotion all over.

Smells Clean & Wonderful
Scent: Berry Bubbly, Size: 20 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I got the strawberry fizz wash and it smells divine! It lathers up nicely and provides a good clean feel. It washes cleanly so no residue or stickiness afterwards. Olay is a great product and I would like to try the Wicked scent as well. After using this once, my skin felt soft and amazing.

Obsessed. Soothing, effective, fragrance-free, incredibly healing
Style: Tolerance Daily Foaming Facial Cleanser
I’ve been loving this so much I bought a second bottle after a few days of using it. It has all the skin soothing benefits of the tolerance lotion cleanser, but it’s also a really great cleanser. It’s almost not noticeable how good it is at cleansing because your skin doesn’t feel stripped after, but it takes things off really quickly. I was worried because it doesn’t foam a lot and it feels so nurturing — much like the tolerance lotion cleanser (which I use as a second cleanse when my skin needs a few days to recover from something like a derm office treatment) — but when I wash again with my favorite HG cleanser nothing extra comes off, and I tested it twice on waterproof eyeliner that I’d swiped on my forearm for an hour or so, the eyeliner dissolved and wiped off with two or three gentle swipes. It has a very emollient texture, so when you rub it against your skin it slips so easily you don’t realize it’s dissolving and taking things away because there is no friction. So it’s great at taking off makeup, it’s AMAZING at cleaning makeup brushes, and IT DOES NOT BURN MY EYES AT ALL. Also, it is FRAGRANCE-FREE… before I bought it I read a review complaining about smelling a citrus fragrance, that person either has some sort of brain tumor or something spilled on their bottle when it was in a warehouse because this is definitely a fragrance-free product. Prior to trying this, I had tried another cleanser that gave me weird acne hives all over my chest (never happened to me before) and I was struggling to heal the acne and the irritation. I noticed an immediate difference when I started using the tolerance cleanser on it; the fresh redness went away, the acne started healing, and the post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation has been healing fast. So I’ve been using this on my body as well and it’s soothing and moisturizing in all the places where other things have been drying. I have mild rosacea and I hadn’t realized how irritated my skin was from the last thing I’d tried until after 5 days or so of using this my skin tone looked much more even and the stubborn PIH I have from a two-zit hormonal breakout a month ago finally looked dramatically lighter (as recently as the week before, I’d needed to cover them with high-coverage concealer). Because this doesn’t foam much, some people might not realize how well it’s cleaning… I encourage you to judge it based on how your skin looks and feels. Since it is very emollient though, I do think it’s important to use it with a face wash scrubber or washcloth just to ensure you’re getting some mild mechanical exfoliation and clearing away skin cells that could be trapping stuff in your pores. For this reason, I do wash my face with this twice so the first wash can get off makeup/debris/oil and then the second wash can really penetrate and clean my skin.
