Detrás de los muros de un convento, reina el silencio, solo salpicado por el murmullo de las oraciones o los melismas de los cantos litúrgicos. O así es como solemos imaginarlo, pero la realidad es otra. Un espacio creado por mujeres y para mujeres, con otras formas de amar, cuidar, organizarse, crear y convivir. Y, sobre todo, podemos constatar que TODO LO QUE NOS PASA, YA LE PASÓ A UNA MONJA DEL BARROCO.

Sinopsis

Olga Yunter was born in July 1900 in a remote frontier post in southern Siberia. A girlhood played out against the backdrop of the China trade changed forever, when, at seventeen, Olga joined her brothers in their fight against the Bolsheviks. Death and retribution followed. Olga was forced to flee to China, rubies sewn into her petticoats. Twice more Olga would be forced to leave everything behind - first to escape Mao''s Communists, and again when Japan invaded China during World War II. From the comfort of her family to the terror of revolution, war and exile, Olga''s Story is the heartbreaking tale of the author''s grandmother.
