Besides being awarded the 2013 Azorín Prize for The Weeping Woman, she has won the Planeta Prize and the Premio de Novela Ciudad de Torrevieja. She received the Tres Llaves (Three Keys) to the city of Miami in 2001. She lives in Paris.
Review:
“"A knockout."” (Miami Herald)

““A bawdy, erotic, and existential novel . . . Literate and funny, poignant and realistic . . . glows with life and energy.”” (Washington Times)
““A sexually forthright and amusing contemporary Candide.””
