Para ello debe viajar a Madrid a cursar el último semestre en la Universidad Complutense. A pesar de la resistencia familiar, está decidida a lograrlo. Durante la travesía, los objetos más preciados que posee caerán en manos de un extraño. Poco se imagina que ese contratiempo será el inicio de un viaje no sólo a otro país, sino a lo más íntimo y auténtico de su ser y sus anhelos. Tal vez el pasado que lleva a cuestas la confronte; quizás el futuro se le brinde prometedor ... hasta que el tiempo alcance. Otros autores han opinado:"Helena, una historia contada con 'h', esa letra muda como lo son un sinfín de mujeres que silencian sus penas y hacen suyas culpas que no les corresponden. Una novela tan tierna como dura en la que la ilusión pelea con la realidad para finalizar de forma insospechada."--Ildefonso Falcones, autor del bestseller La catedral del mar -
A trip that marked her for life, a chance meeting that changed her forever. In the prime of her life, Helena Artigas wants to accomplish her biggest goal, to get her PhD. For this she must travel to Madrid to study her last semester in the Complutense University. Despite her family's resistance, she is determined to do so. During the trip, her most prized possessions fall into the hands of a stranger. Little does she know that this setback will be the beginning of a journey not only to another country, but to her most intimate and personal yearnings. Maybe she will be confronted by her past, or perhaps her future will become brighter. "A story like the endless number of women who silence their sorrows and take on burdens as theirs even though they are not theirs to take. A novel as tender as it is hard in which illusion conflicts with reality for an unimagined end."--Ildefonso Falcones, author of the bestseller La catedral del mar / Cathedral of the Sea.
