History, romance, adventure, and memory in the times of the Spanish Republic
On a Sunday in October 1937, Dolores meets Isabel during a shift at the hospital. Valencia was about to mark almost a year since it had become the capital of the Spanish Republic, and its streets showed hunger and the constant fear of bombings. In that brief moment, as simple as the flutter of a small dragonfly, their destiny will change, inevitably.
Hand in hand with Isabel and Dolores, we will become part of Mujeres Libres, a bold and assertive organization; we will dive into 1940s Paris, at the height of jazz, existentialism, intellectualism, and sexual freedom. We will hold our breath as the Nazi occupation of France takes place or be moved as we witness the human capacity to love or survive, no matter the circumstance.
No basta una vida, the latest novel by Mila Martínez, is romance, adventure, memory, and a full declaration of intent. The passion, loyalty, courage, and hope flowing through its pages will awaken the purest feelings and the most authentic magic.
