Largo pétalo de mar

Largo pétalo de mar

Allende, Isabel

In the midst of the Spanish Civil War, the young doctor Víctor Dalmau, together with his pianist friend Roser Bruguera, were forced to leave Barcelona, go into exile and cross the Pyrenees to France. On board the Winnipeg, a ship chartered by the poet Pablo Neruda that took more than two thousand Spaniards to Valparaíso, they will embark in search of peace and freedom that they did not have in their country. Received as heroes in Chile -that "long petal of sea and snow", in the words of the Chilean poet-, they will be integrated into the social life of the country for several decades until the coup that overthrew Dr. Salvador Allende, Victor's friend for their common love of chess. Víctor and Roser will find themselves uprooted again, but as the author says: "if one lives long enough, all circles close".
