D jate de Instagram. Habla con tu abuela

De Concha Piquer a Rosal a, un libro fascinante que reivindica el di logo con nuestros mayores, las mujeres pioneras de nuestra cultura popular, la memoria y el amor por la tierra y por las cosas nuestras. Un domingo cualquiera, una joven mira stories en Instagram mientras su abuela se dedica a las faenas del hogar. Una canci n de Rosal a y una alusi n a Concha Piquer son el detonante de una conversaci n en la que la cultura popular, el folclore y el recuerdo de figuras transgresoras que tuvieron que luchar por sus derechos en una Espa a chapada a la antigua se mezclan con las referencias de las generaciones actuales. As , entran y salen de escena Lola Flores, Roc o Jurado, Miguel Molina, las Spice Girls, Nathy Peluso o Federico Garc a Lorca, pero tambi n surge la memoria del campo, las dificultades de cuantos tuvieron que emigrar durante la dictadura o las que todav a afrontan los j venes para encontrar trabajo o hacerse escuchar. Un libro conmovedor que nos invita a reconectar con nuestros mayores y descubrir sus historias para que permanezcan con nosotros. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Enough Instagram. Talk with your grandmother. A fascinating book that reclaims a dialogue with our elders, the pioneering women of popular culture, memories, and love for our land and our things. On any given Sunday, a young woman sits and goes through Instagram stories while her grandmother goes about doing household chores. A song by Rosal a and a mention of Concha Piquer trigger a conversation in which pop culture, folklore, and the memory of transgressive characters who had to fight for their rights in an old-fashioned Spain, intertwine with references from current generations. Thus, Lola Flores, Roc o Jurado, Miguel Molina, the Spice Girls, Nathy Peluso, and Federico Garc a Lorca constantly enter and exit the scene, but we also see memories from the countryside; we see the difficulties of those who had to emigrate during the dictatorship, and also those that young people still must face in order to find work or make themselves heard. A moving book that invites us to reconnect with our elders and discover their stories so that they stay with us.
