Book Synopsis



Solo al dejar de huir podrás sanar las heridas del pasado.

«Un libro lleno de sensaciones, reflexión y gran belleza», RTL.

«Barbery disecciona, a través de un grupo de personajes, la amistad como una conversación que continúa más allá del tiempo y las fronteras», Harper's Bazaar.

«Cautivador de principio a fin», Marie France.

«Una emocionante meditación sobre lo que separa y une a los vivos y a los muertos, el amor y la amistad, la inocencia y la corrupción, la magia de los lugares que habitamos...», Madame Figaro.

«Muriel Barbery busca y encuentra la armonía», Le Monde des Livres.

Margaux se presenta en el entierro de un amigo de la infancia, Thomas Helder, años después de abandonar a los suyos sin explicación. En la casa familiar de Thomas, en plena campiña occitana, resurgen con fuerza los recuerdos de su pasado en Ámsterdam y de ese rincón de Francia en el que crecieron, se amaron y, a veces, se mintieron. A medida que avanza la velada, Margaux se enfrenta a la evidencia de que para continuar debe cerrar las cuentas pendientes.

A través de un reducido grupo de personajes y durante una noche que lo cambiará todo, Muriel Barbery construye un retrato vívido, cargado de sensibilidad y sabiduría, de cómo la amistad se convierte en un poderoso salvavidas cuando atravesamos momentos difíciles.


ENGLISH DESCRIPTION


Only by stopping your escape can you heal the wounds of the past.

"A book full of sensations, reflection, and great beauty," RTL.

"Barbery dissects, through a group of characters, friendship as a conversation that continues beyond time and borders," Harper's Bazaar.

"Captivating from beginning to end," Marie France.

"An emotional meditation on what separates and unites the living and the dead, love and friendship, innocence and corruption, the magic of the places we inhabit...," Madame Figaro.

"Muriel Barbery seeks and finds harmony," Le Monde des Livres.

Margaux arrives at the funeral of a childhood friend, Thomas Helder, years after leaving her loved ones without explanation. In Thomas's family home, deep in the Occitan countryside, memories of her past in Amsterdam and that corner of France where they grew up, loved, and sometimes deceived each other, resurface with intensity. As the evening progresses, Margaux faces the reality that, to move forward, she must settle unfinished business.

Through a small group of characters and during a night that will change everything, Muriel Barbery crafts a vivid portrait, rich in sensitivity and wisdom, of how friendship becomes a powerful lifeline when we navigate difficult times.
