«La hermana» is the novel by Sándor Márai published by Salamandra in paperback (256 pages, in Spanish).
A pianist at the peak of his career travels to Florence to give a concert, but a rare viral illness forces him to be admitted to a hospital. There, in an intense dialogue with the doctor treating him, he confronts the precarious balance between the power of science and the will of the patient. One night, amid morphine-induced delirium, he hears words that drive him to rethink his life and explore the limits of his being.
Written in 1946, this work continues the narrative line of «El último encuentro» and was the last that Sándor Márai published in his country before going into exile.
Aimed at readers of literary and psychological fiction, interested in intimate stories about illness and the human condition.
Sándor Márai was a Hungarian writer, poet, and journalist.
