Más de 40.000 ejemplares y trece ediciones en España en su primer año. «El fenómeno editorial que ha colocado en el debate público las expectativas de los milenials. --Andrea Aguilar, El PaÃs «Una etnografÃa literaria imprescindible que perdurará con el paso del tiempo y se volverá referente para explicar la época en la que vivimos. Da testimonio de la España que somos pero ignoramos. --Brenda Navarro «Me da envidia la vida que tenÃan mis padres a mi edad . Con esta frase empieza Feria, y esta sencilla declaración ha convertido a su autora, una joven debutante de menos de treinta años, en la escritora más celebrada del año 2021 en España. Los recuerdos, reflexiones y diálogos de su protagonista, una chica de pueblo que se muda a Madrid para triunfar como escritora, y llega pronto a la conclusión de que la vida con Netflix, iPhone y cafés de diseño no es para ella, vertebran el relato emocionante de un mundo que se desvanece, incluso para quienes no han llegado a vivirlo. Una familia de clase obrera, con una rama feriante y otra campesina, una infancia libre, y una juventud de preguntas y replanteamientos son contados por una voz salvaje y personal que ha hecho que este libro se haya convertido ya en un clásico para miles de lectores. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Over forty thousand copies sold and thirteen editions in Spain in its first year. The editorial phenomenon that has put millennials' expectations up for public debate. --Andrea Aguilar, El PaÃs
An essential literary ethnography that will endure the passing of time and will become a reference to explain the age we live in. It is a testimony about Spain, the country we are and yet we ignore. --Brenda Navarro I am envious of the life my parents had at my age. This is the first line in Fair, and this simple statement is what turned its author, a young literary debutant not yet thirty years old, into the most celebrated writer in Spain, in the year 2021. The protagonist, a country girl who moves to Madrid to succeed as a writer and soon realizes a life of Netflix, iPhone, and designer coffee shops is not for her, bolsters an exciting tale upon memories, insights, and dialogues about a world that fades away, even for those that haven't lived it. A working-class family with a carny side and a rural one, a free childhood, and a youth full of questions and reassessments, told by a wild and personal voice that turned this book into a classic for thousands of readers.
