Una de las autoras más importantes de corte femenino a nivel mundial vuelve con este particular homenaje a la amistad de tres mujeres que ha sido avalado, de forma unánime, por la crítica especializada de EE. UU., convirtiéndose en un best seller inmediato. Lisa See, la aclamada autora de El abanico de seda, Dos chicas de Shanghái y Sueños de felicidad (Bruguera, 2012) ha conseguido el reconocimiento mundial por su maestría a la hora de retratar las intrincadas relaciones entre mujeres, siempre marcadas por el hilo invisible del destino. Pero nunca antes había ahondado en la amistad de tres mujeres. Ahora nos ofrece la fascinante historia de tres chicas de muy distinto origen que, entre 1938 y 1948, luchan juntas por cumplir sus sueños en el club más glamuroso de San Francisco, hasta que el ataque japonés de Pearl Harbor, tan lejos de ellas, pone en peligro sus ambiciones, y hasta sus vidas, cuando una traición inesperada lo cambia todo. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - "A fascinating portrait of life as a Chinese American woman in the 1930s and '40s."--The New York Times Book Review"Superb . . . This emotional, informative and brilliant page-turner resonates with resilience and humanity."--The Washington Post (One of the Best Books of the Year)
San Francisco, 1938: A world's fair is preparing to open on Treasure Island, a war is brewing overseas, and the city is alive with possibilities. Talented Grace, traditional Helen, and defiant Ruby, three young women from very different backgrounds, meet by chance at the exclusive and glamorous Forbidden City nightclub. The girls become fast friends, relying on one another through unexpected challenges and shifting fortunes. When their dark secrets are exposed and the invisible thread of fate binds them even tighter, they find the strength and resilience to reach for their dreams. But after the Japanese attack Pearl Harbor, paranoia and suspicion threaten to destroy their lives, and a shocking act of betrayal changes everything. "Stellar . . . The depth of See's characters and her winning prose make this book a wonderful journey through love and loss."--Publishers Weekly (starred review) "A sweeping, turbulent tale of passion, friendship, good fortune, bad fortune, perfidy and the hope of reconciliation."--Los Angeles Times

Couples Therapy for Domestic Violence
Format: Hardcover
Very helpful for students, clinicians, and researchers. Great information on understanding domestic violence from a systemic perspective. Excellent outline and explanation of the treatment model and how to implement it with couples and in group formats. This is the only model that offers clinicians like me a clear map to comprehensive treatment services for couples/partners presenting with intimate partner violence / domestic violence. I just purchased 2 more copies for staff interested in implementing the model. A criminal justice professional read my copy and stated: "This is treatment. This is what we need, especially for couples looking at reconciliation."

Smaller than expected
Format: Hardcover
For a book this costly, I expected it to be thicker than volume. That said, there are some great ideas in here and I will probably edit this review when I have finished reading!

Excellent treatment manual
Format: Hardcover
State of the art manual on a solution-focused form of multi-couple couples therapy for intimate partner violence. Excellent presentation of the rationale and the underlying theory behind the approach. I particularly like the presentation of the first six sessions. However, I did not endorse this with 5 stars because I believe that the solution-focused approach does not go far enough for some couples and that they need some more structured interventions for managing conflict, such as those presented in Gottman Method Couples Therapy.
