Rosamund, al borde de la muerte en su remota casa de Shropshire, se embarca en una última tarea: grabar en cintas no solo su propia historia, sino la de Imogen, una joven ciega que apareció misteriosamente en su vida años atrás. A través de la descripción de una serie de fotografías familiares, Rosamund intenta otorgarle a Imogen un sentido de su propia historia y de las fuerzas generacionales que la moldearon. Esta lírica novela de Jonathan Coe explora las complejas relaciones familiares y la naturaleza efímera de la felicidad a lo largo de la segunda mitad del siglo XX en Inglaterra. Es un relato conmovedor sobre la herencia emocional y los secretos que definen a una familia a través de tres generaciones de mujeres.

Jonathan Coe is an English novelist and writer. His work has an underlying preoccupation with political issues, although this serious engagement is often expressed comically in the form of satire. For example, What a Carve Up! (1994) reworks the plot of an old 1960s spoof horror film of the same name. It is set within the "carve up" of the UK's resources that was carried out by Margaret Thatcher's Conservative governments of the 1980s.
