Overview
Clara no ha tenido una vida fácil y la muerte de su abuela la obliga a abandonar el piso que compartían, empeora su estado de ánimo. Sin embargo, mientras vacía la casa, encuentra una baldosa hidráulica que parece ocultar un tesoro. La joven, realista y poco dada a la ensoñación, pero animada por sus amigos y dejándose llevar por una extraña intuición, se ve empujada a una aventura que la forzará a enfrentarse a los miedos y también al pasado de su familia.
En la búsqueda de ese misterioso tesoro olvidado, Clara descubrirá historias que nadie le había contado y se sumergirá en la Barcelona de inicios del siglo XX, cuando el mosaísta Florencio trataba de construir su futuro en una ciudad marcada por el crecimiento más allá de las murallas, el arte modernista y las reivindicaciones de la clase obrera.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
The past and present of a place full of mystery and art go hand in hand in this thrilling adventure novel of dreams restored that reveals a magical and unforgettable Barcelona.
Clara hasn’t had an easy life, and her grandmother’s passing forces her to leave the apartment they shared, crushing her mood even more. However, while emptying the place, she finds a hydraulic floor tile that seems to be hiding a treasure. The young woman, a realist not prone to reverie, but encouraged by her friends and carried away by a strange intuition, is driven to an adventure that will force her to face her family’s fears and their past.
While searching for this mysterious forgotten treasure, Clara will learn stories no one ever told her and plunge into an early twentieth-century Barcelona, a time when Florencio the mosaicist tried to build his future in a city marked by growth beyond the walls, modern art, and the recognition of the working class.
