There isn t really much of a plot but the plot that is there plays out exactly how you think it will Except there is no real explanation of the arrangement between Maria and Isabel It s readable but not what I would call gripping or compelling Ambitious Love you think it will Except there is no real explanation of the arrangement between Maria and Isabel It s readable but not what I would call gripping or compelling

La sangre ajena Free read ñ 105 In the Basue Country in northern Spain just before the Civil War three men in dinner suits stop for a drink at a bar before continuing on their way to a wedding Their trip is interrupted when their leader the wealthy Don Leopoldo has a stroke in the restroomThis event bizarre and undignified though it is begins to weave together the lives of two remarkable women the bride the beautiful and distinguished Isabel Cruces and Mara Antonia Etxarri t. The Wrong Blood is the story of two women of different classes in Spain s Basue country Maria Antonia Etxarri the young daughter of a local innkeeper and Isabel Cruces Hernandez who comes from a family of wealth and influence During the Spanish Civil War 1936 1939 their individual tragedies unexpectedly bring and then bind them together for the rest of their lives Isabel falls in love with and marries an army captain who is killed shortly afterwards leaving behind not only Isabel but her unborn child Maria Antonia only a teenager is raped when a group of soldiers take shelter at her father s inn The local doctor Felix Castro is the central figure connecting them both In the present Miguel Goitia law student and Isabel s grandson is spending time at his grandmother s estate which now belongs to Maria Antonia a sanctuary of peace and uiet while he is preparing for his bar exam His very presence there brings out memories of old wartime secrets that Miguel is not privy to and Castro is torn between telling him the truth about things or letting old memories lie dormant It is also a story about loss grief the nature of class distinction and as Dave Boling author of Guernica and one of the blurbers wrote about human survival at desperate timesIn terms of the writing the direction of the plotline is a bit obvious once you begin reading but that hardly matters in the long run I only rarely find an author whose prose is so elouent that I want to read the book again just to appreciate its beauty And considering this is a translated version well I can only imagine how absolutely wonderful it must be in the original Spanish The story is paced very well it starts a bit slow setting the overall tone immediately while allowing the reader to absorb and appreciate small details that might otherwise be overlooked The sense of time and place is evoked largely through the use of flashbacks which take the reader seamlessly and skillfully through the hardships of war into the present and back again without causing any interruption to the overall flow of the story It is a book that will you find difficult to put down until the very endI recommend this novel to people who enjoy Spanish novels in translation and who truly appreciate the beauty of the written word It s definitely not a book for those who want something uick and easy nor is it an action packed novel that once you ve read you ll forget like so much fiction that s out there on bookstore shelves at the moment It s a book to be enjoyed slowly and kept on your shelf to visit again some day The
