NỘI DUNG:
Carmen và Grace đã gắn bó với nhau từ khi còn là những cô bé - gần như là chị em hơn là chị em họ, những người sống sót qua một tuổi thơ đầy thiếu thốn và nghiện ngập. Trong suốt thời gian dài, tất cả những gì họ có chỉ là nhau. Cho đến khi Doña Durka xuất hiện trong cuộc sống của họ và thay đổi tất cả, đưa Grace về nhà và đóng vai trò lớn trong việc nuôi dưỡng Carmen.
Tuy nhiên, Durka không chỉ là một người bảo trợ trong cộng đồng Bronx của họ. Bà còn là thủ lĩnh của một đế chế ma túy ngầm, một người mẹ lớn với tầm ảnh hưởng hiểu rõ tầm quan trọng của việc nắm lấy quyền lực trong một thế giới mà đàn ông bạo lực thường chiếm ưu thế. Khi Durka qua đời đột ngột, cuộc sống của Carmen và Grace bị xáo trộn.
Grace đã được chuẩn bị để thay thế và có những kế hoạch lớn để mở rộng công việc kinh doanh, nhưng Carmen lại muốn bước tiếp - thoát khỏi cái bóng của Durka, và không còn phải luôn sống trong sợ hãi. Như chính những nhân vật chính của nó, Carmen and Grace là một câu chuyện đau lòng nhưng sâu sắc và thân mật về tình bạn nữ, tham vọng và gia đình được tạo ra từ sự gắn kết.
Carmen and Grace have been inseparable since they were little girls – more like sisters than cousins, survivors of a childhood marked by neglect and addiction. For too long, all they had was each other. That is, until Doña Durka swept into their lives and changed everything, taking Grace into her home and playing an outsize role in Carmen’s upbringing too.
But Durka is more than a beneficent force in their Bronx neighbourhood. She’s also the leader of an underground drug empire, a larger-than-life matriarch who understands the importance of taking what power she can in a world too often ruled by violent men. So when Durka dies suddenly, Carmen and Grace’s lives are thrown into chaos.
Grace has been primed to take over and has grand plans to expand the business, but Carmen is ready to move on – from Durka’s shadow, and from always looking over her shoulder in fear. As tough and tender as its main characters, Carmen and Grace is a devastatingly wise and intimate story about the bonds of female friendship, ambition and found family.
