Book Description
María José Sánchez trabaja de tasadora de arte en una casa madrileña de subastas. Un día recibe la llamada de un antiguo compañero y amante, Jaime González, anunciándole que su común amigo, Marcos Molina Schulz, se ha suicidado. La noticia no sólo devuelve a la narradora a su época de estudiante de Bellas Artes, cuando todavía soñaba con ser pintora, sino que le hace revivir la torrencial historia de amor que vivieron los tres cuando ella apenas tenía veinte años.

This is a tale of a time and a place, of Madrid in the 1980's, where the dullness of a dictatorship gave way to an explosion of life and color, and everything seemed possible. Years later María recalls a three-sided, excessive and doomed passion with the bitter emotion of what has become irretrievable.
