Dolores

A novel

De: Matías Gagliardone

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Dolores Telles, a young Spanish immigrant in the flourishing Buenos Aires of the early 20th century, has long endured the unyielding patriarchal mandates of her family for a long time. Trapped in a marriage and a life she did not choose, a fortuitous event leads her to make a decision that changes her life forever. From that moment on, she embarks on a journey of personal transformation, bound in her own lies to survive, until an unexpected encounter brings her face-to-face with her past. She will then have to muster enough courage to confront an adverse reality and choose which course to take.
Inspired by true events, “DOLORES: A novel” is a story of conflicts and uncertainties, but it is also a journey of self-discovery that brings to light the lengths to which we will go to survive.
Immigration, family, and the role of women in the society of that exuberant Buenos Aires intertwine, making this a story of resilience, reinvention, and the power of choice.
