«Solas» is Carmen Alborch's essay on female solitude, published by Temas de Hoy in paperback, with 247 pages, in Spanish.
Carmen Alborch analyzes female solitude from her own experience, but also from the historical and cultural changes that women educated to be wives and mothers have undergone. She addresses the conquest of public space, equity, friendship among women, motherhood, affective relationships as an alternative to marriage, and female sexuality. With a positive outlook and without militancy, she breaks stereotypes to argue that living alone does not mean being alone.
The work ranges from reflection on solitude as a social phenomenon to voices and examples such as the garçonne or Virginia Woolf, according to the book's index.
It is a work for those interested in feminist essays and in the transformations of women's lives in contemporary society.
Carmen Alborch Bataller was a Spanish politician, writer, and minister of culture.
