«La soledad era esto» is the novel by Juan José Millás, published by Destino in paperback (181 pages, in Spanish).
After the death of her mother, Elena Rincón begins a slow and painful metamorphosis towards liberation. Between the gaze of a detective and the estrangement of her husband, the story addresses solitude, lack of communication and the disenchantment that replaced ideology with material well-being. Millás makes the city and the everyday the landscape of that anguish.
