Reading club - They write
On October 30, 2021, the "Ellas Escriben" Reading Club will take place in the Assembly Hall of the Pablo Ruiz Picasso Cultural Center, which meets once a month, and is dedicated to literature written by women.
This club, where any reader can participate, in addition to promoting reading, aims to be a meeting place that encourages literary, cultural and feminist dialogue, and gives visibility to women writers. On this occasion, the group will talk about the book "La Buena Suerte" by Rosa Montero.
Synopsis: What drives a man to get off a train early and hide in a seedy town? Does he want to restart his life or does he intend to end it? Perhaps he is fleeing from someone, or something, or even himself, and fate has brought him to Pozonegro, a former coal center that is now dying. In front of his house, trains pass that can be salvation or condemnation, while the pursuers tighten the fence. Doom seems to be closer every day.
But this man, Pablo, also knows people in that cursed place, like the bright, incomplete and somewhat crazy Raluca, who paints pictures of horses and has a secret. There they all carry a secret, some darker and more dangerous than others. And some just ridiculous. There is also humor in that sad town, because life has a lot of comedy. And people who pretend to be who they are not, or who hide what they plan. It is the great game of falsehoods.
A hypnotizing intrigue mechanism gradually unravels the mystery of that man, and in doing so shows us the interior of who we are, an X-ray of human longings: fear and serenity, guilt and redemption, hatred and anger. wish. This novel talks about Good and Evil, and how, despite everything, Good predominates. It is a love story, of tender and feverish love between Raluca and the protagonist, but also of love for life. Because after each defeat there can be a new beginning, and because luck is only good if we decide to make it so.
