The peaceful life of Masnou, a coastal town near Barcelona, in the first decade of the post-war revolves around a respected middle-class family, a symbol of family harmony. Carlos, the protagonist, lives immersed in this placid world without apparent fissures. However, grudges, violence, political retaliation and sexual brutality soon begin to corrode this idyllic image. For Carlos, the sordid reality of a tragedy emerges that will end up devouring the town and, with it, the Oria dynasty. The most disconcerting, tender and painful novel by Masoliver Ródenas.
