En 1858, cuando Valentina partió desde España hacia la colonia de Cuba en pasaje de tercera clase, tenía un joven marido a su lado y el corazón repleto de ilusiones.

Esta Historia de las mujeres responde a la necesidad de ceder la palabra a las mujeres. Alejadas, desde la Antigüedad, del escenario donde se enfrentan a los dueños del destino, reconstruir su historia significa describir su lento acceso a los medios de expresión y su conversión en persona que asume un papel protagonista.
