Summary:
"Una novela formada por una serie de relatos interconectados; todos ellos relacionados con el pasado y los secretos de un linaje. Estas son las confesiones de tres generaciones de una familia gallega mientras esperan a enterrar a su matriarca y la casa familiar se prepara para cerrar sus puertas para siempre. Sus historias revelan el ethos gallego y, a su vez, expresan la lucha universal que conlleva ser humanos. Aquí hay cabida para el amor y la muerte, para la extrañeza de los cambios en un lugar conocido y de la transformación personal en un entorno estático, para la leyenda fantástica y para los muy terrenales problemas de la enemistad, la traición y el maltrato. ¿Tan grande es el universo que puede ocultar lo no dicho entre quienes mejor se conocen?" -- Solapa interior en contraportada.
"A novel made up of a series of interconnected stories; all of them related to the past and the secrets of a lineage. These are the confessions of three generations of a Galician family as they wait to bury their matriarch and the family home prepares to close its doors forever. Their stories reveal the Galician ethos and, in turn, express the universal struggle that comes with being human. Here there is room for love and death, for the strangeness of changes in a familiar place and of personal transformation in a static environment, for the fantastic legend and for the very earthly problems of enmity, betrayal and abuse. Is the universe so big that it can hide the unsaid between those who know each other best?" -- Inside flap on back cover.
