An innocent girl was born into a family that bears the scars of poverty, domestic violence, abandonment, and lack of love. She seized upon the courage and desire to help her family financially and went to Europe. Amidst many obstacles, she demonstrated her strength and ability to find happiness in the simple things in life. This work makes us reflect: How many tragedies are we capable of withstanding? Is happiness found in the process or in the conquest? It is impossible to finish this book without feeling inspired to keep going. This girl walks through her own story without realizing that she has walked the path her mother and grandmother had already taken. Angela Brodb ck, with her ability to engage the reader from the very beginning, manages to deal with the complexities and tragedies that crossed her life from childhood to adulthood. This intimate, painful, and inspiring biography addresses social issues such as extreme poverty in the northeast of Brazil, sexual abuse, and more. Despite all her traumas, the author finds purpose in life where there was dryness and roughness. In this work, Angela Brodb ck shares with the reader the choices that her grandmother, mother, and she herself made throughout their lives due to lack of money. It is a life punished by poverty and marked by the cruel side of the world, which deeply involves the reader and, at the same time, invites us to look at our traumas with more sensitivity.
