Book Synopsis
Una novela llena de intriga y amor. La vertiginosa historia de una mujer extraordinaria. Un recorrido trepidante por la historia del siglo XX. María García, nacida a principios del siglo pasado en una aldea aislada entre las montañas asturianas, se ve obligada a abandonar su hogar de forma abrupta, sola y siendo apenas una niña por el estallido de la guerra en 1936. Aunque parece contar con sus manos como único patrimonio, pronto descubrirá un impresionante talento que le permitirá viajar por medio mundo. Esta es la historia de una mujer excepcional cuyo camino la lleva a trabajar duro, a crecer como persona y ascender en la escala social, además de a cometer errores y tomar decisiones complejas..., incluida la de tomarse la justicia por su mano. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A novel of love and intrigue. The incredible story of an extraordinary woman. A thrilling journey through twentieth-century history. María García, born in the first decades of the twentieth century in an isolated Asturian mountain village, flees her home alone at the outbreak of Civil War in 1936. Still a child and with no means to sustain herself, she soon discovers an astounding talent that will take her all over the world. This is the story of an exceptional woman who worked hard for personal growth and climbed the social ladder, making mistakes and facing difficult decisions along the way...including taking justice in her own hands. Following a career in the cultural world, where she became known for her commitment to equality, social justice and the environment, Llerena Perozo Porteiro (Vigo, 1974) changed her life drastically in 2020: She gave up her job, her apartment in Santiago de Compostela, and her urban lifestyle for a new life in rural Galicia. Since then, she has contributed to various Galician media outlets and published two novels. The Quiet Years is her first book in Spanish.About the Author
