Story
¿Qué impulsa a un hombre a bajarse anticipadamente de un tren y ocultarse en un pueblo de mala muerte? ¿Quiere recomenzar su vida o pretende acabar con ella? Tal vez esté huyendo de alguien, o de algo, o incluso de sí mismo, y el destino le ha traído a Pozonegro, un antiguo centro hullero que ahora agoniza. Por delante de su casa pasan trenes que pueden ser salvación o condena, mientras los perseguidores estrechan el cerco. La perdición parece estar más próxima cada día.

Pero bailar El Danubio azul para Mengele salvó su vida, y a partir de entonces empezó una nueva lucha por la supervivencia. Primero en los campos de exterminio, luego en la Checoslovaquia tomada por los comunistas y, finalmente, en Estados Unidos, donde acabaría convirtiéndose en discípula de Viktor Frankl.

En los años 1942 y 1943, durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, buzos de combate italianos hundieron o dañaron catorce barcos aliados en Gibraltar y la bahía de Algeciras. En esta novela, inspirada en hechos reales, sólo algunos personajes y situaciones son imaginarios. Elena Arbués, una librera de veintisiete años, encuentra una madrugada mientras pasea por la playa a uno de esos buzos, desvanecido entre la arena y el agua. Al socorrerlo, la joven ignora que esa determinación cambiará su vida y que el amor será sólo parte de una peligrosa aventura.

Amparándose en la coartada del terrorismo islámico, unos políticos teócratas se hacen con el poder y, como primera medida, suprimen la libertad de prensa y los derechos de las mujeres. Esta trama, inquietante y oscura, que bien podría encontrarse en cualquier obra actual, pertenece en realidad a esta novela escrita por Margaret Atwood a principios de los ochenta, en la que la afamada autora canadiense anticipó con llamativa premonición una amenaza latente en el mundo de hoy.

Publisher's Summary
La historia de cómo una mujer debe reencontrarse a sí misma después de que la separación de su marido suponga el desmoronamiento de todo su mundo.
Una joya de la literatura contemporánea de la gran Elena Ferrante, la autora que ha fascinado a más de 5,5 millones de personas en 42 países.
«Un mediodía de abril, justo después de comer, mi marido me anunció que quería dejarme. Lo dijo mientras quitábamos la mesa... »
Todo cambia en la vida de Olga cuando, después de quince años de matrimonio, Mario la abandona por una jovencita. Sola con sus dos hijos, el mundo en apariencia perfecto de la mujer se desmorona. Atrapada entre las cuatro paredes del piso que antes llamaba hogar, Olga no duerme, no come y casi no se reconoce: quien está al otro lado del espejo cuando se mira por la mañana es una mujer que ha perdido todos sus atributos y tendrá que buscar otras palabras que la definan y le permitan seguir adelante.
Escuchando Los días del abandono nos convertimos en testigos de una caída libre hacia la desolación, un lugar donde ya nada tiene sentido, pero como en todos los buenos libros, también en este «thriller del alma» cabe la sorpresa, y el abandono puede abrir puertas que antes eran muros.
La mejor literatura contemporánea disponible en formato audiolibro

In her bright and energetic performance of this British classic, she expertly captures Austen’s signature wit and tone. Her attention to detail, her literary background, and her performance in the 2005 feature film version of the novel provide the perfect foundation from which to convey the story of Elizabeth Bennet, her four sisters, and the inimitable Mr. Darcy.

Story
In seaside Blueberry Cove, Maine, friends are just another word for family, and big-city politics take a backseat to local pride. But the real treasure on these shores is always love.... When DC lawyer Hannah McCrae heads home for her brother's wedding, she's dragging a lot of baggage along with her - and she doesn't mean suitcases. Betrayed personally and humiliated professionally, the last thing she wants is a new man. That's fine with square-jawed, rugged contractor Calder Blue.
