Overview
En un mundo sumergido casi por completo por el mar, un hombre llamado Bran lleva los últimos diez años viviendo en una isla desierta. Fue enviado allí por aquellos a los que antaño lideraba y marca cada día que pasa en la pared de su cueva, esperando el final. Un día, ocurre algo que despierta en Bran unos recuerdos y una nostalgia que lo convencen de que regrese, aunque eso conlleve su ejecución. Su recepción es tan inesperada, tan difícil de explicar, que se desespera tratando de averiguar qué es real y qué imaginario. Solo la amistad de una niña le servirá de apoyo mientras rememora los terribles hechos de los que es responsable e intenta volver, después de su gran traición, a los brazos de quien amó. Marcas en la pared es una novela profundamente conmovedora sobre la culpa, la pérdida y la memoria narrada con una prosa desapasionada de gran elegancia.
