A blue dot in the Mediterranean by Eva Espinet

A blue dot in the Mediterranean
by Eva Espinet

“That life that I tried to hide today resonates like a murmur inside me.”

A story that combines a hidden secret, an impossible love and a tragic journey between wars.

In Palamós (Girona) in 1995, Marina reunites sixty years later with her teenage love, Hans, a Nazi who fought in the Second World War. A devastating revelation tests the protagonists’ courage at the most decisive moment of their lives.

This is a story that challenges the power of memory and the strength of feelings. A story of transformation, of learning, of impossible loves, of betrayals, of the search for forgiveness, of heroes and heroines who lost their own wars, but who managed to survive to love again.

Two generations go through a time between wars to exorcise the ghosts of the past and heal old wounds. A transformative journey in search of an inescapable truth: no one can hide from themselves forever.

A generational relationship between grandmother and granddaughter that grows and strengthens as they heal their wounds together.

Eva Espinet This pro-Barcelona native and citizen of the world is passionate about traveling and lives with almost childlike enthusiasm any challenge that destiny confronts her with, such as writing her first book at the age of twenty-three, Dictionary of Quotes, Sayings and Sayings (Ed. Mitre, 1990) . Her almost unhealthy curiosity has led her to be a multifaceted and entrepreneurial professional: writer, journalist, publicist, anthropologist and historian.

She is the author of Apolo, 75 years without stopping dancing, History of a Castle, as well as various catalogs on advertising. She is now awaiting the publication in the United States of The Iberian Table: An Introduction to The Spanish Mediterranean Diet, by Robin Keuneke, on which she has collaborated as art director, photographer and content advisor.

Likewise, he has been a scriptwriter for the documentary Convivir en la difference (Documentos TV, TVE). She has received the Special Second Prize in the VI International Women Traveler Stories Award (2014) for Días de Asia and the First Prize in the I Parkinson Short Story Literary Contest, University of León (2011) for Antonio.
