Una novela acerca de la búsqueda de la libertad femenina que llevó a Carmen Martín Gaite a convertirse en un clásico de la literatura del siglo XX.

No le contesté ni que sí ni que no. Seguí diciéndole adiós con la mano, hasta que la vi pararse en el límite del andén, sin dejar de mirarme. Se le caían las lágrimas.

Entre visillos (Premio Nadal 1957) retrata el ambiente, el conservadurismo y la hipocresía que subyace en una ciudad de provincias española de mediados del siglo pasado. Las conversaciones aparentemente banales entre las jóvenes protagonistas de esta novela nos irán dando a conocer sus angustias, su miedo a quedarse solteras, la monotonía de sus vidas, sus paseos y primeros novios, los bailes en el casino y esa tristeza que se oculta tras el aburrimiento y la falta de imaginación. La llegada del nuevo y atractivo profesor de alemán provocará en las protagonistas el deseo de liberarse del conformismo y de esa atmósfera opresiva.

A novel about the search for female freedom that turned Carmen Martín Gaite into a twentieth-century literary classic.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

I didn't say yes or no. I kept waving goodbye until I saw her standing on the end of the platform--her eyes never left me. She was crying.

Behind the Curtains (Nadal Prize 1957) portrays the environment, the conservatism, the undergoing hypocrisy in a city of the Spanish countryside, in the mid-twentieth century. The apparently banal conversations among the young protagonists show us their anguish, their fear of being single, the monotony of their lives, their walks and their first boyfriends, the dances at the casino, and that sadness concealed behind boredom and a lack of imagination. The arrival of a new and attractive German professor will result in their wish to break free from conformism and that oppressive atmosphere.

Be Cooler About The Packaging and Instructions.
Size: 4 Panel, Color: Black
This packaging is TERRIBLE. The "instructions" are TERRIBLE. They were just a single sheet with minimal info, SHOVED into the box randomly. Could've folded it flat and slid it in there. Both times I ordered this, I had this exact same experience. Good thing I've put together tons of furniture and toys over the years. I'm sure older people would have a hard time with assembling this. At least it's light to move around without trouble, and blocks SOME light. Does not block the flood lights outside my building, which shine into my living room, but oh well.

Not the best
Size: 4 Panel, Color: Black
The panels are pretty transparent anytime there’s light that can shine through. They don’t stay on well either. There are large gaps between the panels so I had to hang blankets to really create privacy. The whole thing feels pretty cheaply made but at least it’s light and was easy to put together.
