Synopses & Reviews
Skarmeta has achieved a complex narrative which nonetheless reads simply, with a smoothness that is not at all naive, because beneath the anecdotes are hidden other readings and thus, with intelligence and joy, the story expands and broadens.
Synopsis
At the end of the 19th century, a successful store owner, Stamos Marikanis, marries Gema's most beautiful woman. But his bride dies in a bizarre accident. Twenty years later, Stamos comes back to life in the form of Jeronimo Frank, who again marries a beautiful girl. Will history repeat itself?
