En El Camping

Soledad Puértolas demonstrates her refined mastery in observing and narrating life, delving into the human soul with an apparent lightness. Two old friends, estranged by time, share their bewilderment at a world they understand less and less; an unanswered phone call has marked a life; an elderly woman staying at her daughter's house witnesses the amorous escapades of the building's doorman and a maid... These are some of the stories Soledad Puértolas tells in this collection of splendid tales.
