En 'Viví en el Cerro Mariposa', Marjorie Agosín nos presenta la historia de Celeste Marconi, una niña que vive en la idílica ciudad de Valparaíso, Chile. Su mundo se ve alterado cuando la agitación política llega a su país, obligando a sus padres a esconderse y a ella a buscar refugio en Estados Unidos. A través de los ojos de Celeste, somos testigos de la valentía y la resiliencia frente a la adversidad, mientras se adapta a una nueva vida en Maine sin olvidar su hogar. Esta conmovedora novela, enriquecida con ilustraciones interiores, es un tributo al poder de la revolución, las palabras y el amor, basada en hechos reales ocurridos durante la dictadura de Pinochet en Chile.
