Lena al descobert

Lena reviews her life on her fiftieth birthday: she works as a proofreader and with what she earns it is difficult to get to the end of the month, she lives in a rented flat, she has no partner, she has almost no friends, her father he has just died, he does not know where he is going or has any plans for the future. It seems that it is becoming more and more invisible in the eyes of society: the balance is frightening. But, as a result of the fortuitous encounter with the owner, gray and enigmatic, of his flat, a retired gentleman, he will dare to rebel: he will turn his life, hitherto alienated and monotonous, and take a risky path that will bring you closer to a past full of silences in a society that has many things to hide. On the effect that the past and half-truths have on the conception of oneself and on the attitude we adopt towards life. A novel about the abuse of power and privileges that originated during the Franco regime but are still present today. A reflection between today's Barcelona and post-war Menorca.
