Diario de una buena vecina (Narrativa (Punto de Lectura))

At the center of this novel are two womenworlds apart, yet neighborswho come together by chance in a neighborhood pharmacy. Janna, a middle-aged contemporary woman is the editor of a women's magazine. She is good at her work and her life seems to her a success. Then there is Maudie, skinny, rag-and-bone tattered and in her late eighties, she is a bundle of ferocity who has spent the last years sustaining herself on pride, and expressing that pride as a cats hissing anger. This strong and affecting novel traces the friendship of these wildly disparate women.
