Una novela épica de amor, descubrimiento y aventuras escrita por la autora de Cuando era puertorriqueña "La narración de Santiago es emocionante.... Un triunfo." --The Washington Post Desde que era una niña en la España del siglo diecinueve, Ana Larragoity Cubillas se siente atraída por la exuberante y exótica isla de Puerto Rico que describen los diarios de un antepasado que viajó a la isla junto a Ponce de León. Y en los hermanos gemelos, Ramón e Inocente -ambos enamorados de ella-, Ana encuentra la forma de llegar allí se casa con Ramón y convence a los hermanos de que su destino se encuentra en la remota plantación de azúcar que han heredado en la isla. Pero las fantasías de Ana no la han preparado para el implacable calor, los peligros de una tierra salvaje, ni los esclavos de quienes depende la existencia de la Hacienda Los Gemelos. A pesar de las tragedias y privaciones, el misterio y romance de la isla la mantienen cautiva, y Ana lo sacrificará casi todo con tal de mantener el control de la tierra que se ha convertido en su verdadero hogar. Y cuando finalmente encuentra la pasión en un sitio antes prohibido, la vida y la riqueza por las que ha trabajado se ven amenazadas por las mismas personas sobre cuyos hombros se ha levantado. Un relato sensual y fascinante: la historia cobra vida cuando se cuenta a través de la vida de una indomable e inolvidable mujer. «Si, como dice el refrán, la historia la escriben los vencedores, entonces Esmeralda Santiago ha imaginado la historia escrita desde el punto de vista de los invencibles. Esta narración, notable por su detallismo, imaginación, meticulosa investigación y sabiduría, es historia escrita por una guerrera vencedora en el esplendor de su poderío». --Sandra Cisneros, autora de La casa en Mango Street y Mujer sin vergüenza, entre otros «Una apasionante epopeya que no solo revela la vida de una mujer extraordinaria, sino también una etapa esencial de la historia puertorriqueña. Rica en detalles de la época, con un dramatismo inolvidable y una fascinante galería de personajes, Conquistadora seducirá lectores, almas y corazones».--Cristina García, autora de Soñar en cubano y Mapas difusos, entre otros «Conquistadora es una novela maravillosa de opulenta trama, con una historia inolvidable que no solo ilustrará a los lectores con respecto a la fascinante historia de Puerto Rico en el siglo XIX, sino que además los deleitará con una narrativa entretenida y de profunda sensibilidad. Un gran logro de una de nuestras mejores escritoras» -Oscar Hijuelos, ganador del premio Pulitzer «Hamacas, corsés, jerez, encajes, caña de azúcar y un amor prohibido».- Oprah Winfrey
«La escritora le da vida a la historia caribeña con personajes tan humanos como icónicos. La riqueza de su imaginación y la exuberancia de su lenguaje maravillarán a los amantes de las novelas épicas». -Publishers Weekly ENGLISH DESCRIPTION As a young girl growing up in Spain, Ana Larragoity Cubillas is powerfully drawn to Puerto Rico by the diaries of an ancestor who traveled there with Ponce de León. And in handsome twin brothers Ramón and Inocente--both in love with Ana--she finds a way to get there. She marries Ramón, and in 1844, just eighteen, she travels across the ocean to a remote sugar plantation the brothers have inherited on the island. Ana faces unrelenting heat, disease and isolation, and the dangers of the untamed countryside even as she relishes the challenge of running Hacienda los Gemelos. But when the Civil War breaks out in the United States, Ana finds her livelihood, and perhaps even her life, threatened by the very people on whose backs her wealth has been built: the hacienda's slaves, whose richly drawn stories unfold alongside her own. And when at last Ana falls for a man who may be her destiny--a once-forbidden love--she will sacrifice nearly everything to keep hold of the land that has become her true home. This is a sensual, riveting tale, set in a place where human passions and cruelties collide: thrilling history that has never before been brought so vividly and unforgettably to life.

So comfy
Size: King (Pack of 1), Style: Standard Loft (4" - 5")
I spent time looking up/watching videos on pillows for neck pain and this one comes up a lot. I’m someone that used to wake up every few weeks with a stiff neck so bad it could make me cry at work. I haven’t had that happen once after months of using this pillow. I look forward to laying my head down on it every night. It’s a luxury experience every time. I think what it does so well is maintain its shape. You can really squish it up how you want and it stays there even after hours. Moldable but somehow still firm. It’s expensive but to me the value is there because I no longer get crazy neck pain from sleep. Worth trying it out for sure. Btw I was stuck between this is and Purple brands couple top end options. I never got around to trying them because I tried this one first and was very satisfied!
Feb 2026. Still use it every night and it's still protecting me from neck pain I used to get from sleeping. It's held up amazing. Hope to use it for many more years.

Saatva Pillow is great
Size: Standard/Queen (Pack of 1), Style: Standard Loft (4" - 5")
So far this is the best pillow I have had in the last 10 years and I have tried two Purple pillows a couple different memory foam and Gel pillows at least 4 more pillows that I can't even remember the names of. My neck and shoulders are almost pain free. I have also been doing more stretching of my arms which is also helping, but this pillow has really made the most difference in the pain I have had, I felt difference from the first time I put my head on it. It's comfortable, the perfect height I got the 4"-5", I also got the queen size and it's great. It supports my head just right. I also ordered the Saatva Classic 14" mattress from the company and I sure hope it's as good or better would be great because I have back issues for the last 50 years.

Cotton Fluff Around a Mostly Empty Bag
Size: King (Pack of 1), Style: High Loft (6"-7")
Bought the high-loft king, thinking it would be a great (tall) side-sleeper. What I got? A very nice, completely compressible cotton outer shell wrapped around a bag a bit smaller than a standard pillow. In that bag? A tiny amount of small latex chunks, just about a third full. That’s right, some cotton fluff around a basically empty bag. Could you buy some latex yourself and add it? No, the bag is sewn shut. You could probably fill a small pillow with latex you bought elsewhere and put that in. But seriously, what did you pay Saatva for in that case?
Probably as close as I’ve seen a major/high-reputation company get towards a literal example of rip off.
