Todo parecía ir bien, pero Blanca sabía que nada iba bien en realidad .


Una novela generacional, fresca y mordaz.


Una mañana de 1993, la vida de Blanca se rompe cuando su padre le anuncia que su madre no regresará. A partir de entonces, Blanca teme que pueda tener un don insólito: la capacidad de obrar milagros, aunque el primero sea provocar la muerte de una niña que se burla de su situación familiar. Con el peso de la culpa sobre sus hombros y las ansiedades propias del abandono, Blanca busca en internet personas con las que hablar y conecta con un grupo de chicas que también se encuentran solas y perdidas. Unidas por la fascinación que sienten por Charles y Marilyn Manson, Joy Division y su gusto por vestir de negro, Blanca encuentra en ellas a su familia elegida.


Fuego en la garganta recorre la infancia y la adolescencia de una chica que no encuentra su lugar en el mundo. Una aventura que se trasladará de las pantallas a un mundo real en el que habitan padres ausentes, héroes inesperados, monjas, tecnófobos y hippies del sur de España.


ENGLISH DESCRIPTION


"Everything seemed fine, but Blanca knew that nothing was really fine."


A fresh and biting generational novel.


One morning in 1993, Blanca's life shatters when her father announces that her mother will not return. From that moment, Blanca fears she might have an unusual gift: the ability to perform miracles, though the first one seems to be causing the death of a girl who mocks her family situation. With the weight of guilt on her shoulders and the anxieties of abandonment, Blanca searches the internet for people to talk to and connects with a group of girls who are also alone and lost. United by their fascination with Charles and Marilyn Manson, Joy Division, and their love for dressing in black, Blanca finds in them her chosen family.


Fuego en la garganta traces the childhood and adolescence of a girl who cannot find her place in the world. An adventure that moves from screens to a real world inhabited by absent parents, unexpected heroes, nuns, technophobes, and hippies from southern Spain.
