About this listen
En el reducido universo familiar de Amalia y sus tres hijos, Silvia, Emma y Fer, el engranaje se mueve al ritmo desacompasado de las emociones. Es una familia típica, y sobre todo, muy real. Un cosmos cocido al fuego lento de varias entregas que han atado a miles de lectores. Pero llega un día cumbre en sus vidas. Emma se va a casar y todos se sumergen en las tareas y los remolinos de organizar la mejor boda. La noche previa a la ceremonia, una llamada rompe la armonía familiar. Silvia, Emma, Fer y otros parientes se conjuran para poder celebrar a la vez el aniversario de Amalia, que coincide inevitablemente con la fecha de la boda. 24 horas de acelerón emocional que pondrán a prueba a todos y cada uno y al mismo engranaje familiar.
Un nuevo ejercicio de virtuosismo emocional. Una literatura que llega por el plexo y se inocua directamente a los sentimientos. Alejandro Palomas extiende su ya variada paleta de colores para dotar a sus personajes de los matices, sesgos y rasgos que los acercan a los lectores y éstos los reconocemos como a propios en sus particulares universos familiares.
Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

Cuando Yuri Santacruz asistió al nombramiento como canciller de Adolf Hitler, no podía imaginar lo mucho que cambiaría su vida en Berlín. Había llegado allí unos meses atrás, después de haber huido, junto con parte de su familia, de San Petersburgo, asfixiados por una revolución que los había dejado sin nada. A Yuri también lo privó de su madre y su hermano pequeño, a quienes las autoridades rusas no permitieron la salida del país. Ya en Berlín, su sentido de la justicia lo impulsará a defender a un joven comunista agredido por las tropas de asalto de Hitler.

Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

My fiancé brought me tea and scrambled eggs in bed that morning, and we snuggled together, talking about buying our rings, and about our perfect wedding next year. Then we headed into town. He held my hand and gazed at the ring I liked best, a smile spreading slowly over his face. Then a glass of bubbly to celebrate. I felt flushed, excited and ready for the rest of my life with the man I loved. We race to get on the train home. It screams to a halt and I run towards its open doors. Made it. I think he’s right behind me — but when I turn around, he’s gone.

Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.
