A story about institutional classism and racism in the art world. Two Latina women - Anita and Raquel, over a decade apart in time - experience similar injustices and barriers from the men and the established systems around them. It takes a lot of self-awareness, anger and a touch of magic-realism, that then brings out the fighting spirits to right those wrongs.

The audiobook and its narrators were loud and boisterous and a lot of fun to listen to. Now off to read the article about the controversies surrounding this book (about the uncredited artist who inspired it).
