The Last Romantics

A novel about how twists and turns in life sometimes give us a second chance. A novel to help you believe in life.

Irune’s life takes place between her home and the paper factory where she works in an industrial town close to Bilbao. This insecure, somewhat manic hypochondriac manages to face the world when she feels she needs to, and she tries to live in accordance with values society seems to have forgotten. Her circle of friends and acquaintances is reduced to her coworkers, her neighbor, and a train conductor she calls on the sly to ask the timetables of trains she never takes.

When a conflict comes up at the factory, without really knowing how, Irune ends up taking a side. From then on, her life takes an unexpected turn and she finds an opportunity that was awaiting her even though she didn’t realize it.
