About the Book

Si no te atreves a hablarle cara a cara, siempre puedes hacerlo con el contestador.

El descubrimiento de una gran escritora, ganadora del Premio La Voz de Galicia de Novela por Entregas, del Premio de Relato Breve de la UNED y del Premio de Microrrelato de Microbiblioteca.

¿Por qué enviar un mensaje de WhatsApp cuando puedes poner tu voz? ¿Por qué poner tu voz si podrías decirlo cara a cara? ¿La distancia física nos vuelve más audaces, más impunes?

Incapaces de enfrentarse a sus secretos, a la soledad y a los hombres con los que desearían hablar, las cuatro protagonistas de esta novela coral prefieren dejar sus confesiones en el contestador automático.

Marina es abogada especializada en divorcios y desafía el abandono de su marido; Carmela está enferma de cáncer y necesita despedirse de su hijo; Sara es una joven de buena familia a la que la presión de su boda inminente ha llevado al borde del suicidio y a una dudosa terapia psicológica, y Viviana es prostituta en Madrid, aunque su familia cree que trabaja en Ikea.

Mensaje a mensaje, sus vidas se van dibujando y ese mismo contestador que recibe sus confidencias trenzará sus historias revelando el enorme poder liberador de la palabra. Mensaje a mensaje, el lector avanza queriendo conocer el final y también descubriéndose a sí mismo con igual voracidad.

La revelación de una gran autora con una mirada inteligente, conmovedora y llena de humor sobre el amor, la soledad y la comunicación en los tiempos del móvil.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

If you don't dare to speak face to face, you can always do it over voicemail.

The discovery of a great writer, winner of The Voice of Galicia Serial Novel Prize, the UNED Short Story Prize, and the Microlibrary Microstory Prize.

Why send a WhatsApp message when you could send your voice? Why send your voice if you could do it face to face? Does physical distance make us bolder, more audacious?


Incapable of facing their secrets, loneliness, and the men they want to talk to, the four protagonists of this choral novel prefer to leave their confessions on voicemail. Marina is a divorce lawyer challenging her husband's abandonment; Carmela has cancer and needs to say goodbye to her son; Sara is a well-bred young woman who is brought to the brink of suicide by the pressure of her imminent wedding; and Viviana is a prostitute in Madrid, although her family thinks she works at Ikea. Message by message, their lives are revealed, demonstrating the immense liberating power of words. An intelligent, moving, humorous look at love, loneliness, and communication in the age of cell phones.
