«Pasiones: amores y desamores que han cambiado la Historia» is the historical essay by Rosa Montero, published by Aguilar in 1999 in paperback (230 pages, in Spanish).
Rosa Montero brings together eighteen stories about great loves and heartbreaks that shaped history, from Mark Antony and Cleopatra to John Lennon and Yoko Ono, with figures such as Joanna the Mad and Philip the Handsome, Oscar Wilde and Lord Alfred Douglas, or Evita and Juan Perón. With a style close to narrative journalism, the author portrays the intense, often tragic relationships of famous figures and offers a historical mosaic on the adventure of existence.
The book was originally published as a series of articles in the Madrid newspaper El País and was revised for this Aguilar edition, within the Sin Colección collection.
For readers interested in history and literature who enjoy short stories about the love lives of famous figures.
Periodista y novelista madrileña, columnista de El País, autora de Historia del Rey Transparente, La hija del Caníbal y la saga de la detective Bruna Husky.
