This is the Spanish Team's (Susana Tosca, María Fernández and Nuria Gimenez) contribution to the webnovel. There are two characters in this story: Alejandra, a retired editor, and her daughter Marta, who is a journalist. Alejandra's husband, Oskar, a German art critic, died a few years ago and Alejandra's continuous mourning has made the mother-daughter relationship even more complicated that such things usually are. Marta is angry at her mother for having "renounced life", as she describes it, and believes Alejandra thinks she hasn't mourned enough for her father. Alejandra, on the other hand, is worried about what she calls the "disastrous love life" of her daughter, whom she thinks too shy and insecure to be successful in life... One day a letter arrives for Oskar... You can start with the mother or the daughter.
