La primera y esperada novela de una gran autora: el retrato de la encrucijada vital de una mujer.

«Marta Orriols tiene la capacidad de fijar con palabras la fugacidad y lo imprevisto de las circunstancias cotidianas.».- Ponç Puigdevall, El País

«El odio y el amor a veces se acoplan en una sola bola, como gotas de mercurio, y de la amalgama surge un sentimiento pesante y tóxico y extrañamente añorado. Eso es lo que irrita. La añoranza, a pesar de todo.»

Paula Cid es una neonatóloga de cuarenta y dos años con una vida ordenada. Apasionada por su trabajo e inmersa en la rutina de una relación sentimental que se resquebraja, pierde a su pareja en un accidente de tráfico pocas horas después de que él la invite a almorzar para comunicarle que, tras quince años de matrimonio, hay otra mujer en su vida y ha decidido marcharse de casa. Junto al desgarro de una muerte a destiempo, Paula deberá hacer frente a la desdicha de sentirse abandonada y sobrellevar no solo el duelo, sino también el rencor. Una figura femenina que aparece en el hospital la tarde del fallecimiento de Mauro es la única que puede dar fe de que este hombre tenía ya otra vida... y tarde o temprano las dos mujeres tendrán que encontrarse.

Con su primera novela, Marta Orriols se consolida ya como una de las autoras españolas más interesantes de la actualidad. Sabe poner la lupa sobre los movimientos del alma femenina y llevarnos del dolor a la ternura, de la sonrisa a la emoción.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The first and much anticipated novel by a great author: the portrait a woman's unexpected crossroads.

Paula Cid is a forty-two-year-old neonatologist with an organized and uneventful life. Passionate about her work, she now finds herself immersed in the routine of a broken relationship. She loses her husband in a traffic accident just a few hours after he informs her that, after fifteen years of marriage, there is another woman in his life and he has decided to leave home. Along with the pain of an untimely death, Paula must face the bitterness of feeling abandoned and she must overcome her mourning and resentment at the same time. A female figure who shows up at the hospital that afternoon is the only one who can attest that this man really had a double life ... and sooner or later the two women will have to meet.

With her first novel, Marta Orriols has proven herself as one of today's most interesting Spanish authors.

"Marta Orriols has the ability to put into words the brevity and the unforeseen circumstances of everyday life." - Ponç Puigdevall, El País

Timex. Life is ticking.
Color: Black, Size: One Size
A family member is headed off to Navy boot camp and is required to have a watch-a black watch. But...it cannot be anything in the realm of, be like, or indeed be an Apple Watch. The search began for a simple timepiece. Economy was important since after the 8 weeks of boot camp ended, use of the current watch would be resumed. Enter Timex...(the world's largest manufacturer of watches and mechanical time fuses). During the Amazon search there were all manner of economically (actually cheap) watches noted to be available, so many that it was simply overwhelming. Timex...tried and true since 1854 (just a fun fact, but actually attests to the quality of the company) was the chosen one. A simple but reliable timepiece was required, and certain qualifications were needed. First, it had to be an accurate time keeper and have a second hand, and have a date indicator. Secondly, there had to be an element of water resistance (this is Navy boot camp after all, so water is important!). Thirdly, it had to be black. Fourth, no bells or whistles whatsoever. Finally, a face with 24 hour/military time would be a bonus. This Timex Rugged Core Expedition Analog Watch fit the bill. Upon arrival it was packaged in a traditionally square box the size of the watch, no frills but sturdy enough to ward off damage during shipping. Once opened the first thing noticed was the face of the watch. It was black, with white numerals in both standard and 24 hour/military time, had a red second hand, luminescent hour and minute hands, and date indicator. The nylon band was also black, had ridges, and had a fastener like a belt. At the end of the band were two extrusions which seemed to lock the excess band into place once it was fastened. After wearing a number of days, the watch has kept excellent time matching the Apple Watch. Both watches were worn on the same arm at the same during the day and during sleep. They were worn during regular daily activities, during exercise and during strenuous garden work such as hauling, digging holes, dragging 40 lb bags, etc. Time was checked multiple times per day, and the time on each watch was exactly the same every time checked. The Timex was water resistant during a 5 minute shower and while submerged water. This is not a dive watch but, according to the ad, is water resistant to 50 feet for light swimming. The performance of this watch has been more than satisfactory executing in stellar fashion everything it was stated to be able to do. I can recommend this watch for boot camp purposes without reservation. Top 3 Likes: -Reliable keeping accurate time, has military time numerals -Is water resistant as tested -Is black, attractive with luminescent hands, second hand, date, and light up face Top 3 Dislikes: -The band is stiff and somewhat difficult to latch -The two little extrusions do anchor the band, but are difficult to undo to take off the watch -Only two dislikes!

Timesx quality still rules.
Color: Black, Size: One Size
Excellent everyday watch. Stylish, easy to read, and accurate. Needed a knock around watch and this puts up with it's share of abuse. It's a bit more expensive than some others in this class, but Timex is well-worth the money in quality. I use mine for eveything except when I need something more formal.

Dependability and accuracy
Color: Black, Size: One Size
This watch is awful, I had it for a month and it lags behind and does not keep the right date. I am a nurse so I need to have accuracy and dependability and this watch is not it.
