"A magnificent novel, a profound and inspiring text that resolves itself with the apparent simplicity that only comes with technical mastery." — Pablo Martínez Zarracina, "A beautiful novel that takes us into the world of conflicting points of view, of ethics and aesthetics, of moral turpitude in politics. . the unmistakable and diaphanous echo of a great story that makes no concession to the gallery."—Á. M. Salazar, "One of those books that stays in your memory for a long time after reading." — Ramón Jiménez, When Felipe Díaz Carrión loses his job he eventually emigrates with his family to the Spanish Basque country in search of a new opportunity. Regarded as foreigners in a region affected by political violence and separatism, he suffers his son and his wife's detachment and rejection in their struggle for integration.

Everything up there seemed to reveal to him its exact opposite, and it was then that he opened his eyes as wide as they would go so that he could fit into them all the space around him, so that he could fit the road and that immensity and even the entire expanse of time with all its vicissitudes, while simultaneously breathing in as much air as he could get into his lungs, as they said his father had done. The vertigo of disappearance made him wobble slightly for an instant, still at the cliff ’s edge, and immediately, with all that vastness in his eyes, with the breath of the eternal rising off the road and up toward him, and a strange sense of piety for all that remained impenetrable, he took one dumbstruck step, just one, and it was not forward into the abyss but backward, onto terra firma, followed a moment later by another, and then another, all filled with liberating, inaugural astonishment, and as he turned his head to one side, drawn by the shouting that had just begun to reach him, he saw, too, against the background of all those strangely indomitable surroundings and, above all else, all that unbowed opening of his eyes, his son Felipe — he, too, Felipe Díaz — gasping for breath and running for all he was worth to reach him and throw his arms around him.

He said nothing then, either, but suddenly — the pomegranates are opening up down below, and they’re as red and ripe as ever, he heard his son say after a short while — he was certain that if he uttered one phrase or began to say anything, regardless of how softly or loudly, words would have regained all the meaning whose restitution they themselves were clamoring for at the top of their lungs.
