Although this is one of the longest books I have ever read, at almost 1,000 pages, I enjoyed it tremendously. It´s an epic international novel that describes how the Spanish Civil War´s aftermath played out in the lives of three people. ( ) Usually I read a book in Spanish to calm me down before bed. Unfortunately this one made me more frustrated and angry. The two main characters were so stubborn and single-minded that they were unbelievable. When Catalina chased Marvin all over the world and continued doing so even after her daughter told her to stop, I almost stopped reading it. And Fernando... just as stubborn and such a flat character. Also, very repetitive. Same dialogue over and over. How much Fernando loved Catalina and that Catalina had to make Marvin claim Adela as his daughter, etc. I’ve read other books by Navarro which I enjoyed, but not this one. 1168 pages. Easily could’ve been half that amount. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
Publisher Annotation: Madrid, 1941. Fernando, Catalina, and Eulogio have grown up together in a Madrid neighborhood near the Encarnacion convent. The Civil War has just ended and they are all attempting to overcome the pain it has caused in their lives and those of their loved ones. Fernando lives with his mother, Isabel, awaiting the release of his father, who has been jailed for his republican ideals, and counting on a pardon that never comes. Catalina lives on the same street as the convent. Her family has been ruined during the war, and, to face their debts, her father intends to marry her to a man for whom she feels nothing. Eulogio is the one who has lost the most due to the war. His father died fighting, and he himself was crippled from a heroic act in which he saved the life of Marvin, a young U.S. Hispanist who arrived in Spain in 1936 to study Golden Age literature and later decided to stay and capture the pain of war in a famous poetry collection. The future prospects seem ever bleaker for the three young people who decide to unite their destinies and start a new life far from Madrid in order to save what little they have left.
