Uno de los mejores libros del Siglo XXI según el New York Times El libro que ha inspirado la próxima película de Almodóvar, que estará protagonizada y producida por Cate Blanchett Tras años de injusto olvido, Alfaguara se suma al fenómeno editorial del descubrimiento de Lucia Berlin, el secreto mejor guardado de la literatura estadounidense, una auténtica revolución literaria. XVII Premi Llibreter 2016. Libro del Año según Babelia. Una revelación literaria: el secreto mejor guardado de la literatura estadounidense. Manual para mujeres de la limpieza reúne los mejores textos de la legendaria escritora de relatos Lucia Berlin, uno de los secretos mejor guardados de la literatura estadounidense. Con su inigualable toque de humor y melancolía, Berlin crea verdaderos milagros con episodios del día a día. Las mujeres de sus cuentos están desorientadas pero, al mismo tiempo, son fuertes, inteligentes y, sobre todo, extraordinariamente reales. Son autoestopistas, duras trabajadoras, malas cristianas. Ríen, lloran, beben. Sobreviven en un mundo de jockeys, doctores y telefonistas con un ingenio propio de Lorrie Moore y la agudeza de Raymond Carver. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION One of the New York Times's 100 Best Books of the 21st Century The book that has inspired Almodóvar's next film, which will star and be produced by Cate Blanchett One of The New York Times Book Review's Ten Best Books of 2015 "I have always had faith that the best writers will rise to the top, like cream, sooner or later, and will become exactly as well-known as they should be-their work talked about, quoted, taught, performed, filmed, set to music, anthologized. Perhaps, with the present collection, Lucia Berlin will begin to gain the attention she deserves." -Lydia Davis. A manual for cleaning women compiles the best work of the legendary shortstory writer Lucia Berlin. With the grit of Raymond Carver, the humor of Grace Paley, and a blend of wit and melancholy all her own, Berlin crafts miracles from the everyday, uncovering moments of grace in the Laundromats and halfway houses of the American Southwest, in the homes of the Bay Area upper class, among switchboard operators and struggling mothers, hitchhikers and bad Christians. Readers will revel in this remarkable collection from a master of the form and wonder how they'd ever overlooked her in the first place.Shipping Notes

Very flattering in my opinion
I'm 5'6 and no hips, so I really liked that the length is a little longer and flares a little at the hips giving my chunky but not curvy figure some illusion of a girlish figure. The pattern and colors were pretty & I'd say pretty close to the ad. Great blues and a coral/peach ... not sure my camera did it justice. I like the pleat at the back ... I feel that it minimizes the bra bulge that can happen at times. I stepped out after try on and my guy said it looked great (he's a truth teller with clothes) so that made me feel better because sometimes I see what I want to see at first & later see the flaws. I do see the case instructions ... getting used to hang to dry all things lately. Feels a little more nylon-ish but not bad. Its not super thin and light where I think it's a clingy thing. Really do like this shirt

Nice, but not great fabric quality
Color: Floral Black, Size: Large
The fit was great. Colors were as shown. The fabric shows signs of wear pretty much on the second wear so durability isn’t great. The fabric is soft and light weight so perfect for spring and fall. Not sure I’d buy again as I think it will look worn out quickly.

Very Straightforward and Easy to Use
Reload type: One Time Reload
I have used this several times, and it has always been a smooth and convenient experience.
The biggest advantage is how intuitive the process is. Reloading the balance is simple, quick, and easy to understand without unnecessary steps or confusion.
It is especially useful for managing spending, setting a shopping budget, or keeping funds ready for future purchases. Instead of entering payment details every time, having balance available makes checkout faster and more convenient.
I also appreciate how quickly the funds are applied, allowing immediate use once the reload is completed.
This is one of those simple Amazon features that works exactly the way it should.
Overall, easy, efficient, and user-friendly. I have been very satisfied with it. Five stars.

“ incredibly convenient”
Reload type: One Time Reload
I recently used the Amazon.com Gift Card Balance Reload option, and I’m thoroughly satisfied with the process and the overall experience. Here’s my detailed review:
Convenience
The Gift Card Balance Reload feature is incredibly convenient for anyone who shops frequently on Amazon. It allows me to add funds directly to my Amazon account without having to go through the process of entering credit card information every time I make a purchase. This is perfect for those who prefer to manage their shopping budget by preloading funds to their account. It saves me time and makes the checkout process smoother.
Ease of Use
Reloading my gift card balance was quick and easy. All I had to do was go to my Amazon account, select the “Reload Your Balance” option, and choose the amount I wanted to add. The process is simple and user-friendly, with clear instructions. You can choose to set it as a one-time reload or opt for an automatic reload at regular intervals, which is an excellent feature for those who want to stay on top of their shopping without worrying about running out of funds.
Reloading Options
One of the best aspects of this feature is the flexibility in reloading amounts. I can reload any amount I choose, whether it’s a small amount to cover a single purchase or a larger amount for future shopping. There’s also the option to set up an auto-reload, so my balance is automatically replenished when it drops below a certain threshold. This is particularly helpful for frequent Amazon shoppers, as it ensures there’s always enough funds available without having to manually reload every time.
Processing Time
Reloading my balance was instantaneous, and I was able to make purchases immediately after adding funds. The money is applied to my Amazon account almost immediately, so there’s no waiting around for it to process. This makes it ideal for urgent purchases or spontaneous shopping.
Security
The Gift Card Balance Reload option is secure, and I have peace of mind knowing that my payment information is kept safe through Amazon’s encrypted systems. I don’t have to worry about storing credit card information for each transaction, and the reload process is secure and straightforward. I also appreciate that I get an email confirmation every time my balance is reloaded, providing an extra layer of security and transparency.
Value for Money
The Gift Card Balance Reload is a great option for managing your Amazon shopping budget. It doesn’t come with any additional fees or hidden costs, and I get exactly what I pay for. Plus, I can take advantage of any promotions or bonuses Amazon may offer for gift card reloads (e.g., occasional bonus offers or discounts). The ability to add funds as needed without being locked into a set amount of money is very useful and cost-effective.
Overall Impression
I’m highly satisfied with the Amazon.com Gift Card Balance Reload service. It’s a fast, easy, and secure way to manage your shopping budget and ensure that you never run out of funds on Amazon. The process is simple, and I love the flexibility in choosing how much to reload, as well as the option for automatic reloading. For anyone who frequently shops on Amazon or wants to manage their spending more effectively, this is a great tool to have.
I will definitely continue using this feature to make my Amazon purchases even more efficient and hassle-free.

Easy and simple: Exact Step-by-Step Guide to Reloading Your Balance
Reload type: One Time Reload
I found reloading my Amazon gift card balance much easier than expected. The process was simple and took about 5 minutes at most. Here are the exact steps to do it:
Login: In the Amazon app or on Amazon.com, log in to your account.
Menu: Tap the 3 lines on the bottom right corner of your screen (next to Rufus, Amazon's AI).
Find Category: In the section highlighted "Shop by category," tap on Gifting & Registry (3rd option down in that section) and a drop-down menu will appear.
Select Gift Cards: On the drop-down menu, tap Gift Cards (first option).
Choose Your Action: "The Gift Card Shop" will appear. There you will have three options: "Redeem a gift card," "View your balance," and "Reload."
Start Reload: To add funds, tap Reload.
Select Type: Scroll down to "Add funds directly to your Amazon Gift Card balance" and tap which reload type you want (one-time, low balance auto-reload, or scheduled auto-reload).
Enter Amount: Choose your reload amount. The default is $25, but you can type in your own amount as well (the minimum amount is $5.00).
Finish: Tap the orange "Buy Now" tab.
***I used the Amazon app using the u i OneUI version 8.0 these Amazon app on Android version 16 (Baklava) on a Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra. Others may have a slight variation of the menu setup on the Amazon app.***
