In 'The Frozen Heart', Almudena Grandes tells the story of two families intertwined by secrets from the past during the Spanish Civil War, the Franco regime, and exile. Álvaro and Raquel, heirs to these stories, meet in a Madrid that still bears the scars of its history. Through their encounters and revelations, the novel explores themes of memory, identity, and the consequences of silence on future generations. A work that invites reflection on the impact of the past on the present and how family wounds can influence individual destiny.
