This book is the first biography to be published on Dora del Hoyo, and it recounts the principle aspects of the life of a woman who discovered in her professional work of caring for the home a path to sanctity as well as a way to humanize the world.

"Everybody needs this warmth of the home," comments Medina, "and when a person doesn't find it, it's a lot harder for them to learn how to relate to other people in a truly human way. It's evident that people who care for the home - like Dora did, with her work - have capital importance in society. Government leaders should convince themselves of this reality and see how they can favor in a decisive way the conditions of those who exercise this profession: this will be a fundamental investment for the future,"
