Malena es un nombre de tango Malena Is a Tango Name

Malena is twelve when her grandfather gives her the last family treasure: an old uncut emerald. From that moment on, this girl who prays in silence to become a boy, because she will never resemble her twin sister Reina, the perfect woman, begins to suspect that she is not the first family member unable to find a place in the world. She secretly tries to disentangle the labyrinth of secrets under her family's skin and learns to look for her reflection, as in a mirror, in the memory of those who thought themselves cursed before her. She finds as she reaches maturity forerunners of her own fears and loves in the line of imperfect women who preceded her. Malena finally discovers that there is no curse other than life, and no guilt other than daring to live it.
