An exciting and unconventional novel about the different faces of love and sexual identity during the Franco era.

5th edition

Asun and Santos meet one January night in 1950 at a tablao where she works singing coplas. From that encounter, a relationship is born that soon leads to marriage. Santos is a young librarian at the Ateneo de Madrid and directs a theater group at the university; she leaves the stage to dedicate herself to the home and to caring for the young students to whom they rent a room. Behind that facade of a conventional couple hides a different reality: Santos married Asun to appear as a "man of honor"; because no one can know the truth.

The arrival of two new tenants and the rehearsals of a play that Santos will premiere as part of the First University Congress of Young Writers, organized by people affiliated with the clandestine Communist Party, will provoke a revolution in the couple's life that will change everything.

A story of love, friendship, and struggle that is anything but conventional.
