«39+1. Un compleanno difficile» is a romantic novel by Silvia Soler (Sonzogno, paperback, 193 pages, in Italian).
Cecilia, known as Ilia, is about to turn forty and juggles a weekly magazine with a family that overwhelms her: her second husband, two young daughters, and Octavio, the teenage son from her previous marriage. Her friends also struggle with relationship problems, children, and attempts at late motherhood.
First instalment of the «39+1» series. The original edition appeared in 2005; this Italian edition, translated by Flora Bonetti, was published in 2007.
May appeal to readers close to forty who enjoy stories of women balancing work, family, and friendship with a sense of humour.
Sílvia Soler i Guasch is a Spanish writer and journalist who writes in Catalan. In 2013, her novel L’estiu que comença was awarded the Ramon Llull Novel Award.
