As danger brings them together, their lives back on land intersect in a web of loneliness, desires, and memories. Joan Rebagliato Nadal weaves a choral novel where the sea, music, and the search for companionship merge into a reflection on human fragility. A work that invites the reader to embark on a journey that is both intimate and collective.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe novel begins with four passengers aboard the Enriqueta, a boat caught in a storm. The risk of shipwreck forces them to face their own vulnerability. Simultaneously, on land, their individual stories take shape: the Enriqueta, who gave the boat its name, lives in deep solitude; her ex-partner finds success as a pianist at the Palau de la Música; the musician's new partner prepares bridal centerpieces; and the distracted butcher cuts himself while thinking of Mercè, who happens to be on the boat. Every Saturday, ghosts spread their shrouds and speak of immortality. The plot intertwines these lives to show that, in life as in death, we are all solitary passengers seeking company on the deck of the same vessel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eLoneliness and the search for human connection amidst adversity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRisk and survival as catalysts for personal relationships.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eMemory, recollection, and the presence of ghosts from the past.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe fragility of life and reflection on mortality.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eArt (music) as a contrasting element to daily life and drama.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor readers interested in contemporary, introspective fiction with multiple narrative voices and an atmosphere charged with symbolism.
