Wonderful love story in a period after the colony and independence of a Latin-American city/country. A very interesting way of telling the story.

A magnificent book that talks about an even more magnificent story, the Greek Civilization history. With an easy prose to read and follow, Javier Reverte, mixes in an extraordinary way, historic facts, explanations, personal reflections, poetry; all of this in a tale of extraordinary places, filled with history and a spirit that transcends for centuries.

Incredible story and most incredible that the it is a real story. It is hard to accept, while reading how the story develops, that these are real life events.
