«La mesa es redonda. De caoba. Cabe apenas un teléfono gris de disco. Miro hacia arriba, a esta edad todo se mira hacia arriba. Mi hermano y yo escuchamos angustiados las palabras que nuestro padre dice al auricular. Yo paseo la mirada de uno al otro sin entender muy bien lo que sucede. Acabo de cumplir cinco años. Éste es el último día de mi infancia.»
La pasión no se equivoca, pero a veces se extravía. Por venganza en contra de su esposa, un hombre secuestra a sus hijos y huye con ellos a distintos países. Comienza así una guerra entre dos poderosas familias que ejercen su autoridad y su riqueza hasta las últimas consecuencias.
Para una niña de cinco años es difícil comprender que su vida se vea sacudida por una tolvanera de amores y odios, venganza y protección, verdades imperiosas y, sin embargo, opuestas: odiar a quien más ama, confiar en quien le ha mentido. En esta nueva existencia, ella tratará de entender que hay amores que no tienen remedio, que hay vidas que no son normales, que hay odios que no tienen válvula de escape, y que la única verdad absoluta es que el amor incondicional está lleno de condiciones.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Soon-to-be an adapted series on Netflix
“A touching and fascinating story, both elegant and wise. This may be Tamara Trottner’s first book, but she writes like a veteran author. She sees and understands the pain and experiences of others, allowing her to be mature and generous when weaving her characters’ fates. This is a moving and captivating novel.” - Ángeles Mastretta
“The table is round. Made of mahogany and barely big enough to hold a gray rotary phone. I look up; at this age, you have to look up to see anyone. My brother and I anxiously listen as our father speaks into the receiver. My gaze shifts from one to the other while I struggle to understand what’s happening. I just turned five. This day will mark the end of my childhood.”
Passion is never wrong, but it can be misguided. As revenge against his wife, a man kidnaps their children and flees with them to a succession of foreign countries, setting off a war between two powerful families determined to cling to wealth and power at any cost.
Only five years old at the time, the daughter is swept up in whirlwind of dueling loves and hates, vengeance and protection, and contradictory demands: to hate the ones she loves the most, and trust those who lie to her. In this bewildering new reality, she struggles to understand that some loves are impossible, some lives aren’t normal, some hatreds have no escape, and the only absolute truth is that unconditional love is full of conditions.
