«Canción de cuna» is a novel by Barbara Wood published by Grijalbo in paperback (326 pages, in Spanish).
The novel follows Mary, a sixteen-year-old girl raised in a very intransigent Catholic family in a small American town. When the doctor tells her she is pregnant, Mary claims she is a virgin, but no one in the community believes her and she becomes the object of rejection and harassment. Only an impartial doctor takes her account seriously.
The novel was originally published in 1981 as «Childsong»; this Spanish-language edition is from 1997.
For readers of contemporary fiction interested in family dramas and social tensions in a small community.
Barbara Wood is a writer of historical romance novels. She and her family moved to California, where she grew up. In 2002, she received the Corine Literature Prize.
