The earth will dry up sooner
of Fernando J. Muñez
1845. André de Castronavea returns, with a doctorate in Law, to the Galician country house where he was born. The reunion with his family brings him immense happiness, but his greatest desire is to see Iria, his father’s stepsister, a little older than him. Already in his room, André sees her appear and she, carried away by emotion, kisses him unexpectedly. That kiss will unleash the caged feelings, and, while the impossible relationship between them overflows, André will discover that not everything is joy in the manor: Don Isidro Ordas, a businessman from Ponferrada, has opened mines on the Castronavea lands. Thus, the fight for control of the land, the loves and envies of his brothers, the legacy of his implacable grandfather Dositeu and the inevitable confrontation with the Ordas are intertwined in a hurricane that will require blood, courage and a fierce fight to prevail.
Fernando J. Múñez tells us about how family ties can be a condemnation or a blessing and immerses us in the most painful betrayals, in the most torn loves and in the sacrifices that are made regardless of the consequences, all around a universal theme. : the family.
When the heart of the earth beats it is impossible not to listen to it.
