About this listen

Tita de la Garza, la menor de sus hermanas, está obligada a quedarse en casa sin poderse casar porque tiene que cuidar a su madre. Obligada a rechazar a su pretendiente, expresa su rebeldía en la cocina.

Laura Esquivel conquistó al mundo literario hace veinticinco años a través de esta alegoría que vincula con arte los sentimientos y la gastronomía.

La novela narra la historia de Tita de la Garza a manera de recetario, donde cada capítulo es una receta que relata las aventuras de la protagonista en una casa donde la tradición la obliga a quedarse a cuidar a su madre, y por lo tanto, sin poderse casar nunca. Tita, excelente cocinera, expresa su enojo y rebeldía a través de sus recetas, creando situaciones extraordinarias que involucrarán también a los demás miembros de su familia. Al final, todos estos acontecimientos provocarán que se enciendan "todos los cerillos que llevamos en nuestro interior de un solo golpe".

Es una novela original, curiosa y bien narrada. La escritora sorprende al lector con giros inesperados. Los personajes están bien construidos y la historia te engancha. Cada capítulo empieza con una receta de cocina, y quizá eso es lo que menos me ha gustado. La parte muy típica en las novelas latinoamericanas de realismo mágico, es bastante asumible, se integra bien en el contexto.

Realismo mágico sin pasarse

Inspiring descriptions and characters laced with fabulously narrated recipes. Very sad but many memorable moments. a great book.

Wonderful story.

This book is all about Tita. Tita starts out age 15 and has fallen in love with herself but pretends she’s in love with Pedro. She is so entitled that she never realises her self-deception, seemingly unable to grow up. The toe curling account of Tita’s disastrous love life, from which she retreats into the bolt-hole of the kitchen, vies with her catastrophic Mexican recipes as the most disastrous aspect of the novel.

Excruciating story of the entitled Tita
