ANTES DE QUE ROMEO AMARA A JULIETA, AMABA A LA BELLA ROSALINA. . .¿Fue la mayor historia de amor realmente una mentira?
La novela histórica más emocionante de 2023. Una narración subversiva y poderosa de Romeo y Julieta. ¿Fue la mayor historia de amor una mentira? La primera vez que Romeo Montague ve a la joven Rosalina Capuleto, se enamora instantáneamente. Rosalina, testaruda e independiente, no está segura de las intenciones de Romeo, pero con su padre decidido a que se una a un convento, este apuesto y encantador extraño le ofrece la oportunidad de una vida diferente. Sin embargo, Rosalina comienza pronto a dudar de todo lo que Romeo le ha dicho. Ella interrumpe el partido, solo para que la mirada de Romeo se vuelva hacia su prima, Julieta, de trece años. Poco a poco, Rosalina se da cuenta de que no solo está en juego la reputación de Julieta, sino también su propia vida. A tan solo unas horas de que sea desterrada detrás de los muros del convento, ¿Salvará Rosalina a Julieta de su Romeo? ¿O esta historia solo puede terminar de una manera? Destrozando todo lo que creíamos saber sobre Romeo y Julieta, Bella Rosalina es la fascinante precuela del cuento más conocido de Shakespeare, que expone a Romeo como un depredador con una larga historia de perseguir a niñas mucho más jóvenes. Audaz, lírico y escalofriantemente relevante, Bella Rosalina revela el oscuro subtexto de la eterna historia de los amantes desventurados: es una revisión feminista que cautivará a los lectores de los relatos literarios más vendidos como Hamnet de Maggie O'Farrell y Hester de Laurie Lico Albanese. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The most exciting historical retelling of 2023: a subversive, powerful untelling of Romeo and Juliet by New York Times bestselling author Natasha Solomons
Was the greatest-ever love story a lie? The first time Romeo Montague sees young Rosaline Capulet, he falls instantly in love. Rosaline, headstrong and independent, is unsure of Romeo's attentions, but with her father determined that she join a convent, this handsome and charming stranger offers her the chance of a different life. Soon though, Rosaline begins to doubt all that Romeo has told her. She breaks off the match, only for Romeo's gaze to turn towards her cousin, thirteen-year-old Juliet. Gradually, Rosaline realizes that it is not only Juliet's reputation at stake, but her life. With only hours remaining before she's banished behind nunnery walls, will Rosaline save Juliet from her Romeo? Or can this story only ever end one way? Shattering everything we thought we knew about Romeo and Juliet, Fair Rosaline is the spellbinding prequel to Shakespeare's best known tale, which exposes Romeo as a predator with a long history of pursuing much younger girls. Bold, lyrical, and chillingly relevant, Fair Rosaline reveals the dark subtext of the timeless story of star-crossed lovers: it's a feminist revision that will enthrall readers of bestselling literary retellings such as Hamnet by Maggie O'Farrell and Hester by Laurie Lico Albanese.
