Quédate más tiempo

Viñas Piquer, David

Pepita Piquer does not remember that her sister Flora and her friend Anita, with whom she talks often, passed away a long time ago. Neither does she say that she has four children or that she no longer works in the Trafalgar street candy factory, like she did when she was young. One of her great obsessions was that her children did not take her to a residence when she was older, but Alzheimer's wreaks havoc and they end up admitting her. Faced with the impact this new situation has produced on him, one of her sons, a literature teacher, decides to write a novel. With delicacy, tenderness and a deep humanity, he turns several of the residents who live with her mother into fascinating literary characters that will surprise the reader. Through a narrative that exudes irony and humor, he makes the tragedy funny while still being tragic and ends up discovering that writing about his mother is also a way of being together.
