Description
A sweeping tale of love, loss, and resilience across generations, set against the haunting beauty of the Azores.
In a remote village shaped by tradition and silence, three generations of women grapple with the weight of a patriarchal society that seeks to define them. From the shadows of forbidden love and domestic violence to the scars of racism and homophobia, their lives unfold in a tapestry of longing and survival.
Spanning the 20th century to the present day, this evocative novel paints a vivid portrait of rural life in the Azores. It delves into the Portuguese Colonial War, where soldiers fight for survival, against their own faith, while women wait, bound by hope and heartbreak.
Through fractured mother-daughter bonds and marriages forged in duty rather than desire, this is a story of voices rising from silence. Raw, lyrical, and deeply human, it explores what it means to endure, to resist, and ultimately, to reclaim one’s place in the world.
