Las Que No Duermen Nash - Dolores Redondo.epub -

At its core, the novel is an exploration of female agency and the historical suspicion surrounding women who think for themselves. In one interview, Redondo explained that when a woman used to wake up before dawn, she was told to pray until she fell back asleep, as her "weaker spirit" was vulnerable to the devil. "And the devil entered in the form of ideas, of restlessness, of thoughts that asked her to do things, to have control over her own life," the author explained. That is the central theme of the novel: how this misunderstanding of the female way of being has cost so many women their lives.
