    THE BOOK (English and Spanish)

    Have you ever wondered how far it all goes? What is the plan that the universe has for you and what mysteries are hidden behind the stars?

    Every great story begins with an extraordinary woman, in this case three generations of women whose lives draw us deep into the very essence of the human soul. Rafaela López Aguilar, an Andalusian psychologist and boxer faces her empty existence. On the day of her thirty-seventh birthday, she receives a mysterious letter that will take her on a transformational journey, shattering the chains of time, where she will not only come face to face with her ancestors and a dark past but also with a spiritual world that will completely change her life and that of humanity as we know it.

    An introspective psychological novel filled with magical realism and hints of science fiction that leads us to explore the concepts of conscience and happiness, while also reflecting on social issues such as mental health, domestic violence, religion, sexuality, grief or maternity. This is the story of Belly, Amelia and Rafaela, but in a way, it is also our story. This book is to be truly experienced, bound with the threads of emotion, love, dreams and truth.

    And who knows, upon returning from this journey, you may feel the world has become smaller, or perhaps it is you that has grown.
