Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

Upon visiting a small café in Granada, Spain, modern tourist Sonia is treated to the historical tale of the Ramirez family, whose atmosphere of hope is threatened when the Spanish Civil War erupts in 1936, in a book that was a #1 best seller in the United Kingdom. Original. 50,000 first printing.

Contraportada:

From the internationally bestselling author of The Island comes a dazzling new novel of family betrayals, forbidden love, and historical turmoil.

Sonia knows nothing of Granada's shocking past, but ordering a simple cup of coffee in a quiet café will lead her into the extraordinary tale of a family's fight to survive the horror of the Spanish Civil War.

Seventy years earlier, in the Ramírez family's café, Concha and Pablo's children relish an atmosphere of hope. Antonio is a serious young teacher, Ignacio a flamboyant matador, and Emilio a skilled musician. Their sister, Mercedes, is a spirited girl whose sole passion is dancing, until she meets Javier and an obsessive love affair begins. But Spain is a country in turmoil. In the heat of civil war, everyone must take a side and choose whether to submit, to fight, or to attempt escape.
