Set in a time of silence and repression, this novel chronicles the relationship between two women who must hide their feelings to survive.

In this setting, two women star in a clandestine love story that must navigate not only the economic and social difficulties of the post-war era, but also the moral and legal persecution of homosexuality.

The novel delves into private spaces and everyday gestures that become acts of rebellion, shedding light on a historical reality that is often rendered invisible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eHistorical memory and Francoist repression\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eLesbian love in contexts of persecution\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eLoyalty and betrayal in times of war and post-war\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eEveryday resistance and the construction of silenced identities\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe body and desire as territories of freedom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReaders interested in 20th-century Spanish historical narrative, especially the social consequences of the Civil War.
