Summary

Le destin hors du commun de Sonia Pierre, fille de coupeurs de canne, qui fit de sa vie un combat pour les droits humains.
République dominicaine, 1963. Sonia Pierre voit le jour à Lechería, dans un batey, un campement de coupeurs de canne à sucre. Consciente du traitement inhumain réservé à ces travailleurs, elle organise, à treize ans seulement, une grève pour faire valoir leurs droits. Une des rares habitantes du batey à suivre des études, elle devient avocate et consacrera sa vie tout entière à combattre l'injustice jusqu'à sa mort tragique.

Catherine Bardon révèle l'existence de cette femme exceptionnelle et met en lumière la condition terrible des travailleurs migrants en République dominicaine, un sujet toujours d'actualité. Bouleversant plaidoyer pour la solidarité et la fraternité, Une femme debout est un roman puissant et terriblement humain.
