Sólo durante el día de hoy se puede comprar en Weightless Books, por sólo 1,99$ y en ebook sin DRM, The Freedom Maze, la novela juvenil de Delia Sherman galardonada con los premios Norton, Prometheus y Mythopoeic (entre otros). Ésta es la sinopsis del libro:
Set against the burgeoning Civil Rights movement of the 1960s, and then just before the outbreak of the Civil War, The Freedom Maze explores both political and personal liberation, and how the two intertwine.
In 1960, thirteen-year-old Sophie isn’t happy about spending summer at her grandmother’s old house in the Bayou. But the house has a maze Sophie can’t resist exploring once she finds it has a secretive and playful inhabitant.
When Sophie, bored and lonely, makes an impulsive wish inspired by her reading, hoping for a fantasy adventure of her own, she slips one hundred years into the past, to the year 1860. On her arrival she makes her way, bedraggled and tanned, to what will one day be her grandmother’s house, where she is at once mistaken for a slave.
