La tregua / Truce

Martin Santome, viudo con tres hijos, en las visperas de su jubilacion comienza a registrar en un diario su vida gris y sin relieve. La vida cotidiana de la rutina en la oficina y la de un hogar desunido y crispado se veran alteradas cuando irrumpe en su rutina la joven Laura Avellaneda, su nueva empleada. Y este hombre, casi sin proponerselo, decide abrir en su vida un parentesis luminoso.

English Descriptipn
Just before his retirement, Martin Santome, a widower with three children, starts to document his dull grey life in a diary. The everyday routine at the office and in a tense, conflict-filled home starts to change with the arrival of young Laura Avellana, his new employee. And this man, almost without meaning to, decides to begin a luminous new chapter in his life.
The Truce has been translated to dozens of languages and has been adapted for movies, television, and radio, but above all has enjoyed exceptional acclaim by readers around the world.
