Overview

The world changes... it always changes... a slight variation is enough for what once felt certain to dissolve; it is then that the dystopian scenes of the book emerge. In this case, the harbinger of disaster is a virus that alters the fetus of every pregnant woman: no girl will ever again come forth from a mother's womb; every infected boy dies upon reaching the age of fertility and, as a consequence, humanity plunges into a swift extinction-first the men fell, and later, the women. The book follows characters such as Dante, who faces impossible decisions in his attempt to save his son Job; or his daughter Agnès and his wife Annette, who -like so many others- live caught between fear, denial, and the struggle to survive; or his other daughter, Beatriz, whose role proves essential in reaching an acceptable ending. At its heart, it is a dystopian, science-shaped, philosophical story and, above all, a profoundly human one. Evolution acts as a blind, relentless, and unauthorized force, rewriting the destiny of the species, and culminating in a denouement that breathes hope.
