Entre versos y vivencias, La Hija de Fela y Aladino relata la historia de una mujer puertorriqueña como tantas que nacieron y se criaron humildemente, bajo la pobreza. Cada palabra en ésta historia es la realidad de una mujer sin maldad. La Hija de Fela y Aladino pone al desnudo sus vivencias, sin parábolas, y de una manera poética, demostrando un infinito atractivo por la poesía y la literatura. Esta historia es la autobiografía de una mujer, su familia, y su pueblo, su pobreza, sus logros y sus desventuras.
It was a time of hope and desperation, a time of reckoning . . . In the early 1960s, the Mad Men era, a mood of menace gripped New York City. The crime rate was growing and violence was becoming a daily reality for citizens in every neighbourhood. At the centre of the unrest was a poisonous divide between two camps: the deeply corrupt and racist police of the era and the African American community. Then, on 28 August 1963 - the day on which Martin Luther King Jr stood on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial and declared, 'I have a dream' - two young white women were murdered in their Manhattan apartment. The killings struck fear through the city and ignited a ten-year saga of racial violence and unrest. An epic true-life story of murder, injustice and defiance, The Savage City draws on interviews with participants and extensive research to tell the stories of three very different New Yorkers - an innocent man wrongly accused of murder, a corrupt cop and a militant Black Panther - and to explore this traumatic decade in the city's history.
