«Cuán perversa debe ser esta mujer como para ser capaz de querer estudiar medicina con tal de ver hombres desnudos». - Periódico El Amigo de la Verdad, 1881

El conocimiento fue para Matilde Montoya su único dios verdadero, pero también el origen de todas sus desdichas y su olvidada gloria. A pesar de su inteligencia y sólida vocación, siempre fue relegada en la Academia pos su condición de mujer. Al interior de las escuelas donde estudió, Matilde fue ignorada por condiscípulos y maestros, su presencia en las aulas callada o abiertamente cuestionada y sus opiniones, siempre certeras, fueron objeto de controversias o de burla. Sin embargo, ella, mujer de gran carácter que contó siempre con el apoyo de su madre, Soledad Lafragua, logró superar las adversidades y convertirse en la primera médica de México, provocando el sobresalto de quienes atestiguaron la inevitable destrucción de los cánones establecidos.

La novela de Carlos Pascual, de fenomenal destreza literaria, rescata la figura e importancia de Matilde Montoya, quién luchó con su incuestionable ejemplo por que se escuchara la voz de miles de mujeres acalladas por razones vagas como la tradición o el decoro.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

How wicked is this woman, wanting to study medicine only to see naked men?" --El amigo de la verdad, 1881

Matilde Montoya had one true god --knowledge. But it was also the source of all her woes and forgotten glory. Regardless of her intellect and strong vocation, she was forever an outcast in the Academy, on the grounds of being a woman. In every school where she studied, Matilde was ignored by both peers and teachers alike. Her presence in the classroom was openly questioned. Her opinions, always spot-on, were a matter of controversy or mockery. She, however, a woman of immense character who had the support of her mother, Soledad Lafragua, managed to overcome adversity and become the first female doctor in Mexico, startling those who witnessed the inevitable destruction of the stablished norm.

Written with phenomenal literary craftsmanship, Carlos Pascual's novel redeems Matilde Montoya's roleand relevance as someonewho set an unquestionable example in her efforts to make the voices of thousands of women heard, women silenced for reasons so vague as tradition or decorum.

Game-Changer for My Space!
Color: White, Size: 4 Panel Basic
I recently purchased the Kecreque 4-Panel Room Divider, and it has completely transformed my living area. At 88" wide, it provides ample coverage, creating a private nook in my open-concept home. The white polyester fabric is not only sleek and modern but also wrinkle-resistant and easy to clean—just a quick wipe with a damp cloth, and it looks brand new. Assembly was a breeze; I had it set up in about 20 minutes. The metal frame feels sturdy and durable, and the three extra-wide metal feet offer excellent stability, ensuring it doesn't tip over easily. I love how the panels are connected with flexible buckles, allowing me to adjust the configuration to suit my needs—be it a straight line or an angled setup. This divider has been perfect for creating a dressing area in my bedroom, and I've also used it to section off a workspace in my living room. Its versatility is unmatched, and it folds down compactly when not in use, making storage hassle-free. If you're looking for a stylish, functional, and easy-to-use room divider, I highly recommend this one. It's been a fantastic addition to my home!

Sturdy and Functional
Color: White, Size: 4 Panel Basic
I got this to replace a poor quality divider that I tried first, and this thing is the best! It is easily folded, stands sturdily, easy to assemble, and the fabric looks great. Very very happy with the quality for the price.

Arrived damaged
Color: Black, Size: 4 Panel Basic
Unfortunately, very cheaply made. It arrived with one of the connecting tubes cracked horizontally. Possibly due to bad welding. It is quite a headache to assemble. It was delivered on time but returned for a refund.

Not a great experience but a fine product
Color: Black, Size: 4 Panel Basic
not enough screws were included to make the wall. I was able to locate more screws to finish building-so I didn’t have to return the product- but it was a pain and I got lucky finding the pieces I needed but it could’ve been a fail and a returned product

Useful, simple room divider
Color: White, Size: 4 Panel Basic
All the pieces were accounted for, and some even had extra pieces, maybe just in case they need changing. It was a bit like putting together a piece of IKEA furniture, though I went slower than usual so as not to make any mistakes. It wasn’t too hard to put together myself, and helps give my studio apt a feeling of space and privacy for my bed. I only wish it had a lovely Japanese design on it, but it does amazingly seem to match the wall color.
