Pequenas infamias (Esenciales) - Softcover
¿Existen las casualidades? ¿Quién controla nuestros destinos? Explorando estos interrogantes, Carmen Posadas nos sumerge de manera magistral en un mundo de secretos y coincidencias que conducirán a desenlaces deliciosos e inesperados.
En la casa de veraneo de un acaudalado coleccionista de arte se reúne un variopinto grupo de personas. Juntas pasan unas cuantas horas y, a pesar de las frases agradables y los comentarios corteses, la relación acabará envenenada por lo que no se dicen. Cada una de ellas esconde un secreto; cada una de ellas esconde una infamia. La realidad adquiere de pronto el carácter de un rompecabezas cuyas piezas se acercan y amenazan con acoplarse. El destino es caprichoso y se divierte creando extrañas coincidencias.
Pequeñas infamias es una novela sobre las casualidades de la vida. Sobre las que se descubren con sorpresa, sobre las que no llegan a descubrirse y, sin embargo, marcan nuestro destino, y sobre las que se descubren pero se manifiestan en secreto, porque hay verdades que no deberían saberse nunca. Puede leerse, también, como una sátira de sociedad, como el retrato psicológico de una galería de personajes o como un apasionante relato de intriga, cuyo misterio no se resuelve hasta las últimas páginas.
