After the success of Un corazón demasiado grande, Eider Rodríguez returns with a new collection of short stories.

“A way of understanding literature outside the norm.”
Pol Guasch

A long-term couple faces the truth in the middle of a hot summer; two friends who seem like one person, but for whom the sea means different things; a heartfelt lunch where it will be decided who does things better; a woman digging with her own hands in search of more space; a tourist with a broken ankle who can no longer walk with her family; the last morning of a couple who still love each other.

The characters in these six stories inhabit an uncertain territory between love and heartbreak, life and death, fulfillment and barely sufficient well-being, fragility and fate. Around them appear cavities, caves, and abysses, sometimes imaginary and other times very real: deep cracks in the earth or in the flesh. Through these gaps, Eider Rodríguez looks with precision and clarity at what lies beneath the worn surface of affections, from the small asymmetries that fracture relationships to the loss of happiness, illuminating with her sober and sharp prose the uncomfortable emotions we live with every day.
