Una novela histórica sobre experimentos psiquiátricos con mujeres que ha conmocionado a la sociedad francesa.

Estamos en París en 1885. Como cada año a mediados de Cuaresma, se celebra el popular baile de primavera en el hospital de la Salpêtrière, donde durante una noche la flor y nata de París se encanalla al ritmo de valses y polcas en compañía de las internas, ataviadas con los más extravagantes disfraces. Una velada festiva que, en el fondo, esconde una sórdida realidad: el baile no es más que uno de los últimos experimentos del profesor Charcot, decidido a convertir a las enfermas de la Salpêtrière en mujeres como las demás. Gracias a la escritura depurada de Victoria Mas y a una admirable reconstrucción histórica, esta primera novela, terrible pero poderosa, se ha convertido en un himno de libertad en honor a todas las mujeres.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"An historical novel about psychiatric experiments on women that has shocked French society.

We're in Paris in 1885. As it happens every year, during the middle of Lent, the popular spring dance is held at the Hospital de la Salpêtrière, where during one night the cream of Paris society is channeled in, to the rhythm of waltzes and polkas, with the company of the residents, dressed in the most extravagant costumes. A festive evening that, deep down, hides a sordid reality: dancing is just one of the last experiments of Professor Charcot, determined to turn the Salpêtrière patients into women like the rest. Thanks to the refined writing of Victoria Mas and an admirable historical reconstruction, her first novel, terrible but powerful, has become a hymn of freedom in honor of all women.

O. M. G. It worked so great!
First, let me say, I'm not getting paid for this. This is personal experience. I was about to discard this rug. 1. It's old, like 13 years old. 2. It's been in storage for 4 years. 3. It's matted, as you can see in the pictures. 4. It's brown. Them I saw how much rugs are!😳So I had to come up with something. This was cheap to see if I could salvage it and not spend over $100 on a new rug. The dirt and lint that came out was gross. But as you can see, I was able to make it look new-ish again. I'm keeping the rug and this brush! I have other sheepskin rugs that are smaller and brand new, so this will come in handy.

Worx better than expected. Much improved the appearance and texture after washing & drying my 6 sheepskin pelts and three faux sheepskin pelts. There’s always a natural shedding after a cleaning, but this DEFINITELY decreases those incidents I recommend.

Great for blankets
Great for making sherpa or fur blankets soft again after wash. I imagine it'll work well for fur hoods as well. It did a good job of removing lose hair fibers and the quality is good, even if it's extra spikey. Overall, affordable solution and good looking brush to rejuvenate faux fur

Great but Pain
It’s alright, does the job as it is supposed to. It’s easy to use and helped fix my Uniqlo jacket that was all matted. It didn't restore it to it's original form however it did unmat it. If I bought this way before and touched up the jacket, I think it would of been perfect to this day still. Maintenance of those jackets are a must! The brush is strong and works well for fluffing it up because of the metal wiring. The only bad parts are that it can hurt if you accidentally poke or scratch yourself, I actually got cut by it when I quickly was brushing. It’s kind of hard to get the lint off the brush but it's better than others and might hurt because of the metal. But overall, it’s a cool tool that makes my jacket fluff again!
