Reseña del libro "Artichoke Queen (en Inglés)"

Very few know of the important role women played in the early years of car racing. THE ARTICHOKE QUEEN tells the story of Prudence, a young and beautiful hearing impaired woman in the 1950's. Leaving a troubled home life behind for California, she is thrust into the school of hard knocks in a jazz bar, but finds herself drawn to the local car-racing scene. Her success there launches her into the regional spotlight, where she becomes a reluctant celebrity and beauty queen. A dizzying career and romantic relationship ensue as she enters an infamously dangerous road race across Mexico. But Prudence quickly finds herself in over her head: the races riskier, the rewards higher, her romantic life becoming all too complicated, and in an infamously dangerous road race across Mexico - where she is poised for victory and international acclaim - it seems her whole life is finally about to spin out of control.Shimmering and evocative, tender but tough, THE ARTICHOKE QUEEN is a picture of bygone Americana, back when sex was safe and car racing was dangerous, and captures a groundbreaking woman's struggle for identity, love, and ultimately, redemption.
