Overview

La historia de la mujer que inspiró a J. R. R. Tolkien uno de sus personajes más famosos de El señor de los anillos: la elfa Galadriel.

Ningún fan de Tolkien puede perderse esta novela.

En el 50 aniversario de la muerte de J.R.R Tolkien, Alicia García Herrera ha escrito una emocionante novela que desvela el origen de uno de los mayores fenómenos literarios del siglo XX: El Señor de los Anillos.


Una bella historia de piedad, redención y amor que se prolongará más allá de la muerte.


Frente del Somme, octubre de 1916. Tras el ataque a la trinchera Regina el oficial de señales J. R. R. Tolkien enferma de fiebre quintana. Las condiciones de debilidad extrema en las que se encuentra hacen que sea evacuado al hospital número uno de la Cruz Roja, ubicado en el Casino de Le Touquet-Paris-Plage. Allí es atendido por la enfermera voluntaria Gala Eliard, una fascinante aristócrata que huye de un pasado tormentoso y a la que le impulsa la necesidad de salvar la vida de al menos un solo hombre. El breve encuentro entre ambos, que tiene lugar durante tan solo ocho días, cambiará para siempre el mundo creativo del escritor y encenderá la chispa que inspirará la creación de uno de sus personajes más poderosos, la elfa Galadriel, y del que será uno de los mayores fenómenos literarios del siglo XX.

Alicia García-Herrera, doctora por la Universitat de València y máster, se ha dedicado habitualmente al ámbito de la investigación en ciencias sociales y humanas. Colabora con la sección cultural del diario La Vanguardia y su suplemento, Revista de Letras; también con las revistas literarias Quimera, La Retaguardia, Mercurio y Crátera, además de ser conferenciante. En 2017 fue la ganadora del primer premio de narrativa de la Dirección General de l’Institut Valencià per les Dones i per la Igualtat de Gènere, con la obra Calle Progreso 36, se vende. Es autora de dos ensayos jurídicos y de la obra divulgativa Eso no estaba en mi libro de mitología griega (Almuzara, 2021). La dama blanca (Plaza & Janés, 2023), sobre el escritor J. R. R. Tolkien, es su primera novela.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The story of the woman who inspired one of J. R. R. Tolkien’s most famous characters in The Lord of the Rings: the elf Galadriel.

No Tolkien fan can miss this novel.

On the 50th anniversary of J. R. R. Tolkien’s passing, Alicia García-Herrera has written an exciting novel that reveals the origin of one of the greatest literary phenomena of the twentieth century: The Lord of the Rings.

A beautiful story of mercy, redemption, and love that will last long after death.

Front at the Somme, October 1916. After Regina Trench was attacked, signal officer J. R. R. Tolkien falls ill with quintan fever. Due to his extreme weakness, he is evacuated to hospital number one of the Red Cross, at the Le Touquet-Paris-Plage Casino. There he is cared for by nurse Gala Eliard, a fascinating aristocrat running from a troubled past, driven by the need to save the life of at least one man. Their brief encounter, which lasts only eight days, would forever change the author’s creative world and spark his inspiration to create one of the most powerful characters, the elf Galadriel, in what would become one of the greatest literary phenomena of the twentieth century.
