ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The first and much anticipated novel by a great author: the portrait a woman's unexpected crossroads. Paula Cid is a forty-two-year-old neonatologist with an organized and uneventful life. Passionate about her work, she now finds herself immersed in the routine of a broken relationship. She loses her husband in a traffic accident just a few hours after he informs her that, after fifteen years of marriage, there is another woman in his life and he has decided to leave home. Along with the pain of an untimely death, Paula must face the bitterness of feeling abandoned and she must overcome her mourning and resentment at the same time. A female figure who shows up at the hospital that afternoon is the only one who can attest that this man really had a double life ... and sooner or later the two women will have to meet. With her first novel, Marta Orriols has proven herself as one of today's most interesting Spanish authors. "Marta Orriols has the ability to put into words the brevity and the unforeseen circumstances of everyday life." - Pon Puigdevall, El Pa s |
