Synopsis "Las Edades de Lulu (in Spanish)"

Las edades de Lulú, que obtuvo el IX Premio La sonrisa vertical, es una larga historia de amor que, como cualquier historia de amor que no se resigna a dejar deserlo, va haciéndose más compleja y envolvente. Sumida todavía en los temores de una infancia carente de afecto, Lulú, una niña de quince años, sucumbe a la atracción que ejerce sobre ella un joven, amigo de la familia, a quien hasta entonces ella había deseado vagamente. Después de esta primera experiencia, Lulú, niña eterna, alimenta durante años, en solitario, el fantasma de aquel hombre que acaba por aceptar el desafío de prolongar indefinidamente, en su peculiar relación sexual, el juego amoroso de la niñez. Crea para ella un mundo aparte, un universo privado donde el tiempo pierde valor. Pero el sortilegio arriesgado de vivir fuera de la realidad se rompe bruscamente un día, cuando Lulú, ya con treinta años, se precipita, indefensa pero febrilmente, en el infierno de los deseos peligrosos.

Almudena Grandes (Madrid, 1960 - 2021) was one of the most prominent writers of contemporary Spanish literature. Her work, marked by passionate and committed prose, left an indelible legacy that connects with thousands of readers through deeply human stories.

She debuted with Las edades de Lulú (1989), a novel that not only won the prestigious La Sonrisa Vertical Award, but also became an international bestseller. Throughout her career, Almudena consolidated her place in the literary scene with unforgettable titles such as Malena es un nombre de tango, Los aires difíciles, and El corazón helado.

Her monumental narrative project Episodios de una guerra interminable, composed of six novels, is a reference work for understanding the Spanish postwar period, narrating stories of resistance and historical memory with a unique emotional depth. Works like Inés y la alegría and El lector de Julio Verne are testimony to her commitment to truth and justice.

Acclaimed by critics and beloved by the public, Almudena Grandes received numerous awards, such as the National Narrative Prize (2018) for Los pacientes del doctor García. Her unmistakable style, characterized by the richness of her characters and the intensity of her plots, makes her an essential figure in Hispanic letters.
