donde ha vendido más de 50.000 ejemplares. Ser adolescente no es nada fácil, y menos aún si, como Véronique, se vive con un padre y una madre un tanto especiales, que no puede comunicarse como el resto del mundo. Fuera de las paredes de su casa, la gente cuenta historias, se enfada, ríe y ama. Los padres de Véronique también hacen todo esto, pero con las manos: son sordomudos. Las pequeñas anécdotas e historias familiares son tan irreverentes como reflexivas, tan sencillas como profundas, tan singulares como cercanas a nuestras experiencias. De lo que podría haber sido un drama, Véronique Poulain hace una comedia: un libro único sobre una familia que también lo es. La crítica ha dicho...«Una pequeña joya.»Femme Actuelle «Divertido, cruel y conmovedor.»OuestFrance «Una magnífica declaración de amor filial.»LibérationBound By Your Touch

Livy’s Women explores the profound questions arising from the presence of women of influence and power in the socio-political canvas…
of one of the most important histories of Rome and the Roman people, Ab Urbe Condita (From the Foundation of the City). This theoretically informed study of Livy’s monumental narrative charts the fascinating links between episodes containing references to women in prominent roles and the historian’s treatment of Rome’s evolutionary foundation story. Explicitly gendered in relation to the socio-cultural contexts informing the narrative, the author’s background, the literary landscape of Livy's Rome, and the subsequent historiographical commentary, this volume offers a comprehensive, coherent and contextualised overview of all episodes in Ab Urbe Condita relating to women as agents of historical change. As well as proving invaluable insights into socio-cultural history for Classicists, Livy’s Women will also be of interest to instructors, researchers, and students of female representation in history in general.
