Más información sobre el libro

Jamilet, an extraordinarily beautiful girl from a dusty Mexican village, hides a grotesque birthmark that causes her to be shunned by others. Seeking acceptance and a new life, she escapes to the USA. There, she takes a job caring for the irritable Señor Peregrino, an elderly man with a mysterious past. Despite being instructed to keep her distance, Jamilet is drawn into his world when he cleverly acquires her false documents and offers to return them in exchange for her listening to his story. Reluctantly, she agrees, and he recounts his youthful pilgrimage along the legendary Road to Santiago in Spain. Their connection deepens as he shares his experiences, revealing a journey filled with mysticism and romance. Through their bond, both Jamilet and Señor Peregrino find healing that transcends conventional medicine. This inspiring tale explores themes of redemption, faith, and the enduring power of love, while challenging perceptions of beauty and acceptance. The narrative unfolds with a rich backdrop of cultural and emotional depth, inviting readers to reflect on the fragile line between fantasy and reality. The author, Cecilia Samartin, draws from her own experiences of fleeing Cuba and working to improve the lives of the impoverished, enriching the story with her unique perspective.
