- Summary
- "It is a choral story in which the protagonists are different characters traveling to White Island for a few days of vacation.Men and women of different nationalities, social classes and ages, all apparently very different from each other but with a common goal: escape from their lives in order to become who they want to be or at least stop being themselves for a while.... Their hopes, ambitions, desires, dreams and disappointments are the protagonists of this novel, stories that do not match but intersect at some point, and evolve in parallel submerged in a thrilling plot. A deeply human and contemporary novel, in which the alleged insanity of the island seems to want to drag the characters, but they manage to keep its realism and tenderness through their reactions brilliant dialogues. An ensemble comedy, a fresh, varied, fun and surprising collage"--publisher.
- "Es una historia coral en la que los protagonistas son diferentes personajes que viajan a la isla blanca para pasar unos días de vacaciones. Hombres y mujeres de diferentes nacionalidades, clases sociales y edades, todos aparentemente muy diferentes entre ellos pero con un objetivo común: huir de sus vidas para conseguir ser quien les gustaría ser o, al menos, dejar de ser ellos mismos por un tiempo.... Sus ilusiones, ambiciones, deseos, sueños y desengaños son los protagonistas de esta novela, historias que no coinciden pero sí se entrecruzan en algún momento, y evolucionan paralelamente sumergidas en una trama trepidante. Una novela profundamente humana y actual, en la que la supuesta locura de la isla parece que quiere arrastrar a los personajes, pero ellos consiguen mantener su realismo y su ternura a través de sus reacciones de unos diálogos brillantes. Una comedia coral, un collage fresco, variado, divertido y sorprendente"--publisher.
