The Woman of the Cadillac

The man who arrives on a Wednesday afternoon to the town of Mompuig has a mission that seems very simple: talk to Helena Bau, who has a meditation center, and buy her a Cadillac that she keeps in a garage. But things are never what they seem. Some neighbors do not welcome the presence of the stranger. Neither those who run the bar, nor the guy at the gas station, nor his uncle, who has unclear business. All conceal their reasons and all ignore the real scope of the mystery. La dona del Cadillac is an absorbing, accurate and resounding novel that speaks of the weight of a past that each carries in its own way.

A red Cadillac, locked inside a garage of an isolated village. A stranger, a discreet woman.

Joan Carreras shows with this book that literary quality does not conflict with the vocation to write for the general public.
