Mujeres del Camino: Emprender el Viaje

Women of the Way, Embracing the Camino translated into Spanish by Cristina Silva Turnes.

¿Qué es lo que más le gusta de los libros de aventuras: las descripciones del terreno, la cultura, los retos, el desarrollo personal, la interacción con otros aventureros? En Mujeres del Camino: Emprender el Viaje, Jane V. Blanchard combina todos estos elementos en un relato personal y sincero sobre su peregrinación de ochocientos kilómetros en el Camino de Santiago en 2011— cruzando Los Pirineos a pie desde St-Jean-Pied-de-Port en Francia hasta Roncesvalles en España, y luego atravesando el norte de España hacia el oeste, hasta Santiago de Compostela.

 

Durante más de un milenio, fieles cristianos de todo el mundo han hecho esta peregrinación a la Catedral de Santiago, donde se encuentran las reliquias de Santiago Apóstol. Hoy en día, el Camino de Santiago está reconocido como el primer Itinerario Cultural Europeo y es recorrido por gente de todo el mundo. En el año 2011, más de 183 000 peregrinos han completado esta peregrinación; un 44 % eran mujeres. Aunque Mujeres del Camino trata sobre el viaje de Jane en el Camino de Santiago y sus conversaciones con varias mujeres que conoció durante esta peregrinación, este no es un libro solo “para mujeres”. Es un libro sobre el emprendimiento del Camino, el cambio personal y la magia y belleza del Camino Francés, la ruta de peregrinación más popular a Santiago de Compostela.
