Description
A family's home becomes a battleground in this poignant novel set in contemporary Cuba. When Mariana's illness forces her to stay indoors, she is left alone with memories of a time when her family was united against adversity. As the situation deteriorates, the lines between truth and lies become increasingly blurred. Diego, the youngest son, is nearing the end of his military service, while his sister María has abandoned her studies to work as a waitress at their father's luxury hotel. The anonymous phone calls Mariana receives only serve to further destabilize her health and highlight the deep divisions within the family. This powerful debut novel by Carlos Manuel Álvarez explores the complexities of a society where promises are broken and truths are often distorted, revealing the fragility of even the closest relationships.
