About the Book

La complejidad del amor en sus diversas facetas: el amor entre padres e hijos, entre hermanos, entre amigos y, sobre todo, el amor entre un hombre y una mujer. Un grupo de mujeres chilenas se recuperan de sus crisis sentimentales en un peculiar albergue sólo para mujeres a más de mil kilómetros de Santiago de Chile. Hacia allí parte la historiadora Floreana Fabrés, para poner sus ideas en orden, víctima de una aguda crisis de identidad después del fracaso de su matrimonio y de una nueva relación sentimental que ella había considerado fundamental. Floreana aprovecha su retiro para repasar su vida, su profesión, sus anhelos, sus fracasos, la relación con su hijo y con su familia, su radical y pesimista concepto del amor. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Suffering from an acute identity crisis product of a failed marriage and an unsuccessful romantic relationship, historian Floreana Fabrés arrives at a unique retreat home for women located in a secluded area eight hours away from Santiago de Chile. While working towards finding her balance once again Floreana reviews her life, work, dreams, and disappointments, her relationship with her son and her family, as well as her radical and rather pessimistic outlook on love. El albergue de las mujeres tristes is a treatise on the complexities of love--the love between parents and their children, brothers and sisters, friends, and, most of all, the love between a man and a woman.
About the Author: Una joven se aventura en este revuelo. Tsuru cuenta con casarse con un hombre elegido por sus padres, y con un poco de suerte podr á trabajar ayudando a su padre, médico. Pero su vida se ve trastocada por las creencias de una nueva era y por los extremistas de su entorno -cuyo eslogan es sonnôjôi (venera al emperador, echa al extranjero) y su método para convencer a la gente es la violenc ia. En una sociedad que espera que las mujeres permanezcan ocultas en sus casas o tras los papeles pintados de los salones de té, Tsuru se ve arrastrada por la subversión, la intriga política y un amor peligroso, hasta terminar en pleno campo de batallla, en u n mundo de hombres, cuidando de los heridos.

Flores y sombras es un absorbente relato de amor y de guerra, de mujeres y hombres, d el nacimiento del Japón moderno. Arroja una luz brillante en una época de la historia de la que poco se ha sabido hasta ahora, aun que el impacto que supuso todavía deja murmullos en todo el mundo.
