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.

Very good quality comparable to OEM at a much more reasonable price point.
Size: (Pack of 1)
Last December we bought our first new car in 21 years and the first thing I did is stock up on cabin and engine air filters. I've got nothing against dealership OEM parts and pieces but what I do have an issue with is the prices. Luckily, we all have a bit of control over access to OEM quality parts and pieces at significantly more reasonable prices via Amazon. This filter and it's matching cabin filter are excellent in value and take less than 5 minutes to replace. Compare that to paying the hourly rate at your dealer plus the dealership retail price and you'll do what I did and stock up on these two filters. Definitely recommended.

Perfect fit for my 2018 Civic—easy, affordable, and worth it
Size: 9.5" x 10.9" x 2.1"
I’ve bought this cabin air filter multiple times for my 2018 Honda Civic, and it’s consistently great quality. It fits perfectly and is super easy to install—takes just a few minutes to swap out, and I always do it myself. Way cheaper than going to a shop or dealership. The airflow is smooth, there’s no smell at all, and it keeps the inside of my car feeling clean and fresh. No weird odors, no dust blowing in—just a solid, dependable filter that does its job well. This is the only one I’ll keep buying.

Do it mayne
Size: 9.5" x 10.9" x 2.1"
Good quality and fit but find it funny that the instructions with the air flow are on the side. I assume that would be facing out and was annoyed when I tried to close and it didn’t fit. Probably should have read the directions. Still would recommend
