SYNOPSIS

A magical work, based on real events and with a very special atmosphere and characters; a splendid human landscape in which emotions blossom intensely. In Franco’s Spain, Campos is a quiet village, with charming inhabitants, where the bar is the social centre and personal relationships and shared memories make solidarity a sign of identity. But this calm disappears when a project to construct a dam arrives from the distant capital, a project which could disrupt the roots of the whole village. Campos raises its voice against this injustice , but it is Eliseo Soler, the village poet, who particularly asks those whose job it is to respond the most essential questions.

Prizes and reviews: 

“Things always happen twice in history: first as a tragedy, then as material for fiction. This is a good novel by an author who notes small great styles. And her literature is not wide spectrum, but has a specific voice, whose centre of action is the inner self. Delicate as silk and, though damp, it is like a night dew without tears.”- Qué Leer
