La niña del sombrero azul

Gijón, summer of 1929. At just seventeen, Manuela begins working as a maid in the mansion of the Marquises of Armayor. Surrounded by a luxury that contrasts sharply with the poverty of her native village, the young woman will experience arrogance and heartbreak, but also the art of sewing, while forging an unbreakable friendship with the family's only heiress, Alexandra. Years later, and despite belonging to very different worlds, her friend will be her greatest support when the Civil War forces Manuela to separate from her daughter Telva, sent to Russia along with other children from the Republican zone, and also when she tries to win her back decades later, even if it means risking everything. The longing for Telva, a sometimes cruel fate, and a great love story will mark Manuela's life. A life that will extend over a turbulent century full of contrasts, masterfully reflected by Ana Lena Rivera in the pages of this novel that is read with emotions running high.
