Es curiosa la sensación agridulce que me ha dejado esta novela. Por un lado está bien escrita, es muy atmosférica, con bellas descripciones del paisaje y con muchos sentimientos involucrados. Pero por otro lado es repetitiva (la protagonista narra cómo comete los mismos errores o lo mal que se sentía sin parar), es demasiado intensa todo el rato ( tanto que agota) y la narración supuestamente oral de la mujer que recuerda no es creíble, pues usa un lenguaje demasiado literario para ser hablado y porque recuerda cómo era el paisaje o detalles del ambiente que vivió años atrás con demasiada precisión. Sinceramente como idea de partida esa mujer contando su vida a un desconocido es interesante pero personalmente creo que le sobra la mitad del libro.
