Features: A New York Times bestseller and the representative work of "chicken literature," this is the Latin version of "The Desperate Housewives." It is a novel with rich cultural heritage, discussing topics that all women care about: women, friendship, family, work, and relationships. The main characters are six Latina girls from different social classes, countries, with different life philosophies and religious beliefs. The intelligent Roland is a popular column writer for the Boston Globe, with keen and profound insights into worldly affairs, but he cannot help falling in love with a failure in his personal life; the elegant Yussney is a lover of money and pleasure, always trying to find a lover who matches her expensive taste, but she has long overlooked the person who truly loves her; the conservative Rebecca is a successful magazine publisher but an unsuccessful wife; the beautiful Elizabeth is a popular TV news anchor, but her private life holds secrets unknown to others; the virtuous Sarah is a model homemaker, but the "perfect husband" in front of others is venomous behind her back; the ordinary Amber is usually inconspicuous, but she is an extremely persistent idealist and eventually becomes a wildly popular rock star.
