About This Book

Una joven viajera rubia llega a un lazareto insular tras una travesía transatlántica y afronta el duelo por la muerte de su hermano; la narración explora sus impresiones y reacciones íntimas mientras pasa los trámites sanitarios y convive con otros pasajeros y habitantes del lugar. A través de descripciones del paisaje marino y forestal, encuentros cotidianos y recuerdos, emerge un retrato de la sensibilidad femenina, la fragilidad del cuerpo, la memoria y la búsqueda de consuelo en medio de la niebla, el agua y la hospitalidad ajena.
