She decided to be a hippy at 50 ISC Novel Award 1999 When you feel the world is tight, erases yours dreams, attempts to tie your emotions or silences your voice as you differ, wear your colored beads, your bellbottoms, a ribbon on your forehead and let the wind take you until you find peace, love, and liberty (A.S.) The decision to become a hippy showed up in Mar just as a teenage pimple or the first period, without warning and at the least opportune moment: the day she turned fifty. This choice opens the gates to her soul and transforms her. Her to and fro within society's cliches and her soul's questions bring to light that dreams should be lived in the moment and not stored away. Through her lively and fun language, Angelica Sanchez faces us with ourselves, interrogates and invites us to reflection. Guadalupe Freymond. Litterature dailleurs. Ginebra, Suiza"
