<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Across the Galician countryside, where there are just as many rain-soaked days as not, villagers face hardships armed with hope and solidarity. Toáms is a successful farmer in this small village, but he's not happy. His days are busy with work. His nights are a drunken spiral into self-pity and despair. A widower plagued with guilt, his life has been tarnished by tragedy that has pushed him into isolation and loneliness. All of that changes when he sees Suiza. Warm-hearted and sensual, Suiza lands in the village en route to visit the sea. Her innocently provocative manner disturbs the tranquility of this town. Like all the men who meet her, Toáms is immediately crazy about her. What is initially a simple carnal desire will gradually transform into love and offer the possibility of personal transformation as well."--Provided by publisher.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>How transformative can love actually be?</strong></p> <p>Across the Galician countryside, where there are just as many rain-soaked days as not, villagers face hardships armed with hope and solidarity.
