Congratulations, this book is verified by Villegas editors as a special edition of Nieves 55 años signed by Consuelo Lago and Benjamín Villegas.
It seems that this brash, impulsive and foul-mouthed Nieves will remain forever young and current! She turns 55 but, as Consuelo Lago, the author of her days, says, “…it is striking that Nieves continues to surprise and that people continue to like her.”
An old friend of Villegas Editores, she appeared for the first time in 2000 with “Nieves, impertinent and coquette”, then in 2006 with “Politics seen by Nieves” and now she celebrates with us this respectable age with her notes, and with aphorisms and sayings that he transforms with a lot of valluno humor and popular intelligence.
Just as Gustavo Flaubert stated: “Madame Bovary is me”, Consuelo Lago told someone who asked her: “Why don't you paint yourself?”, she said: “I do paint myself, look and you will see that I am there.” ”…and the fact is that, although one always remains in her 20s and the other gets older, both are from Cali, they live from day to day, they are generous and independent.
“Nieves 55 años” collects memorable phrases from this character and from Hétor – his silent love and infinite patience – in a selection of songs such as: Dancing, Cali, Love, Marriage, Friends, Environment, among others.
A hilarious and wise series of tips could not be missing such as “What you should not let get wrinkled is enthusiasm”, “If you want to be heard, stay quiet” or “Laugh at yourself and you will see that you will calm down” that he tells the eternal Nieves tickling Hétor's chin.
