A coming-of-age story of Nagore Vargas, a child of Spanish left-wing immigrants to the Basque Country, during the eighties and nineties. She had no filter, and grew up quickly. This book is a fast-paced novel, switching back and forth from present day to her past. It is a journey of Nagore’s life, but also of the Basque Country’s evolution through the last three decades. An interesting read and an eye-opener to a Basque Country foreign to other’s experiences.
