As part of the promo for this novel, it is claimed that her trauma captivated one of the leading authors of that reborn nineteenth-century manners that serves the melancholic reader's taste and thriving causes such as feminism.

Does Anne jacobs was in love with this work of the Austrian writer Julia Kröhn. And it is easily understandable in the thematic tune, in the scenography presented with a similar pulse to the saga of the Villa de las Telas.

The point is whether it is premeditated or not, it is a search of the publishers of stories from theme similar to Anne Jacobs booms, the final question is that we are faced with a fully enjoyable plot, located in a world parallel to Jacobs' only with more marked jumps to draw those knots between comings and goings in the middle of the twentieth century.

In other words, a kind of synthesized saga that can lead to prequels that extend over untold moments. Only in this novel the essential is rescued in principle, the enigmatic future of a time that links tthree women of the same family from 1920 to the beginning of the seventies.

A lot of time to weave those knots together, many possibilities for Fanny, Lisbeth and Rieke to face their destinies, written with that magical procedure that sometimes he scripts as if someone were really in charge of making sense of everything.

Only that the protagonists know little about the threads that unite them beyond their natural family tree. They live their dedication to fashion at all times. And there the author takes the opportunity to introduce us with skillful brushstrokes the uses and customs that jump beyond fashion to social and moral currents.

The grace resides in that, in the excuse of fashions, fleeting but always back and forth, like lives, family secrets and the pangs of that silver thread bent on mending stocks.

Looking at momentous moments in their lives, the three women will face that moment of decision that changes everything. Only, being that he could be that superior scriptwriter who could make sense of everything, perhaps some clues for seasoned observers (like a simple red shawl) can make their decisions based on the best option so that everything ends up marrying the wonderful cadence of a symphony that runs through much of the twentieth century, between its lights and shadows.
