Description
"Engarzadas como pequeñas piedras preciosas, las escenas y los momentos de esta novela arman un delicado rompecabezas que va y viene en el tiempo; es 1972, es 1976, es el Mundial de Fútbol de 1978, es hoy. De fondo, la casa en Miramar, la casa en la playa de una familia que se desintegra. Los hijos, una nena de diez años y su hermano menor, asisten a los desencuentros y reconciliaciones de los padres, jóvenes, hermosos, llenos de furia y de amor. Pero también ocurre la tragedia. El padre enferma, y la niña asimila el dolor de la despedida a través de un juego privado entre ellos. Su libro favorito en ese momento, Mujercitas, se convierte en el escenario privilegiado donde juegan a cuidarse y a contenerse el uno al otro. En Miramar, Gloria Peirano nos entrega una historia de amor filial y de duelo que no se olvida con el tiempo; al contrario, se agranda con el recuerdo. Una novela que emociona y nos vincula con las pérdidas inevitables de la vida."--Back cover.
Description
"Set like little precious stones, the scenes and moments in this novel form a delicate puzzle that comes and goes in time; it's 1972, it's 1976, it's the 1978 World Cup, it's today. In the background, the house in Miramar, the beach house of a family that is disintegrating. The children, a ten-year-old girl and her younger brother, attend the disagreements and reconciliations of the parents, young, beautiful, full of fury and love. But also Tragedy occurs. The father falls ill, and the girl assimilates the pain of parting through a private game between them. Her favorite book at the time, Little Women, becomes the privileged setting where they play to care for and contain each other. another. In Miramar, Gloria Peirano gives us a story of filial love and mourning that is not forgotten over time; on the contrary, it grows with memories. A novel that moves us and links us with the inevitable losses of life." --Back cover.
