Introduction

Recapturing childhood can awaken deeply-buried memories that are capable of forever changing a life. Antoine Rey cannot seem to stop replaying a recent series of dramatic events: his divorce, his dead-end job, separating from his children. His entire future blown up in smoke, he is left with only his past. Perhaps unconsciously triggered by this, for her 40th birthday, he surprises his sister Melanie with a trip to Noirmoutier Island, their childhood vacationing spot. After the worldwide success of La llave de Sarah, Tatiana de Rosnay builds, through an evocative narrative, a sweeping and moving novel where each page is softly illuminated by nostalgia and sharply shaped by intrigue.

Spanish Description: Recordar la infancia puede despertar momentos anquilosados en la mente que haran que la vida no vuelva a ser la misma. Antoine Rey no deja de darle vueltas a los ultimos y dramaticos acontecimientos que le han sucedido: su divorcio, el vacio que le produce su trabajo, el alejamiento de sus hijos. Todo su futuro se ha desvanecido, y ya solo le queda el pasado. Por esta razon, aunque de forma un poco inconsciente, regala a su hermana Melanie por su cuarenta cumpleanos un viaje al lugar donde pasaban las vacaciones en su ninez, Noirmoutier. Despues del exito mundial de La llave de Sarah, Tatiana de Rosnay construye con una sentida habilidad narrativa una novela envolvente, emotiva, en la que la nostalgia se retrata suavemente sobre los personajes en su mas tierna edad y la intriga se cincela precisa a lo largo de sus paginas.
