Dani, guionista, y Marta, fotógrafa con inquietudes artísticas, viven en Barcelona y llevan juntos desde hace relativamente poco cuando descubren que están esperando un hijo. La noticia los sume en un limbo de dudas que les hará repensarse como individuos y como pareja. Él, huérfano de padre, tendrá que enfrentarse a la promesa que se hizo años atrás de nunca abandonar a su hijo. Y ella, que nació en el seno de una familia modélica, no siente deseo de ser madre y quiere mudarse a Berlín para cumplir sus sueños. ¿Qué hacer con el dolor que nace de un sentimiento que uno ignoraba albergar? ¿Cómo dar voz a un deseo reprimido? ¿Son las ambiciones profesionales igual de válidas que el deseo de formar una familia? Adentrándose en las emociones más íntimas, Marta Orriols nos invita a explorar las contradicciones que surgen ante la posibilidad de ser padres y a huir del pensamiento simple para observar los límites de la voluntad, el instinto y la libertad, en una historia repleta de matices y aristas que confirma su gran talento narrativo, que la ha hecho merecedora de varios premios literarios. «Marta Orriols has been compared to Alice Munro and Margaret Atwood. The comparison is not unreasonable. " -Enrique Martín, EITB Dani, a screenwriter, and Marta, a photographer with artistic inklings, live in Barcelona and have been together only for a short while when they find out that they are expecting. The news plunges them into a limbo of doubts that will make them rethink everything as individuals and as a couple. He who grew up without a father, will have to face the promise he made years ago never to abandon any child he may have. And she, who was born into a model family, has no desire to be a mother and wants to move to Berlin to fulfill her dreams. What to do with the pain that arises from a feeling that she didn’t know she had? How to allow repressed desires to come to light? Are career ambitions as acceptable as the desire to start a family? Delving into the most intimate emotions, Marta Orriols invites us to explore the contradictions that arise from the possibility of being parents, in a story full of nuances which only confirm her great narrative talent that has made her worthy of several literary awards.
