Historical Fiction has always been a popular topic but most of it focuses on American history or British history. Not many historical fiction books take place in Franco's Spain.
Going by the description provided, this sounds like a book I would pick up or offer as a recommendation for those who might have forgotten or don't remember learning much about Spain back in the 1950s and under Franco's reign. Sometimes our best education can come from fictionalized situations to bring awareness.
The characters sound well-drawn out and offers a glimpse into the world of a non-white female protagonist and someone who is living under a totally different system than what we had in the U.S. at the time.
