Synopsis "temblor"

Temblor surgió de un tembloroso interrogante de la autora: ¿qué pasaría si hubiera un mundo que sólo existiera si alguien lo pensase? Pensó entonces Rosa Montero un mundo agobiante. controlado por el poder de un Estado omnipresente y una religión engarzada por dogmas de hierro. Un país y unos personajes del futuro que quizás estén esperándonos.

Sobre las rumas de la Gran Catástrofe. Agua Fría emprende una larga búsqueda para alcanzar la libertad. Para ello debe liberarse del temor y de las tentaciones que le presenta un orden jerarquizado y siempre capaz de provocar nuevos desastres. Iniciada como sacerdotisa del supremo poder. Agua Fría defiende su integridad interior para sobrevivir a las atrocidades y a la disciplina.

Temblor transcurre en un mundo fabuloso en donde se desenvuelve. junto con la delicadeza de lo poético. la rica atmósfera de lo legendario y lo mítico. En esta vertiginosa historia de aventuras se oculta el escozor de un reconocimiento muy personal. que identifica todo lo que somos.

Rosa Montero (Madrid, January 3, 1951) is a Spanish writer and journalist known for her deep exploration of human psychology, memory, and the passage of time, captured in a sensitive and approachable narrative. She studied Psychology and Journalism at the Complutense University of Madrid and began her literary career with the novel Crónica del desamor in 1979. Since then, she has established her voice in contemporary literature with works that combine fiction, social analysis, and personal reflection. Among her most notable titles are La hija del caníbal (Primavera Novel Award 1997), La loca de la casa (Qué Leer Award 2003 and Grinzane Cavour in Italy 2004), Historia del Rey Transparente (Qué Leer Award 2006), La ridícula idea de no volver a verte and La buena suerte, as well as El peligro de estar cuerda.

Montero has received numerous accolades throughout her career, including the National Journalism Award (1980), the National Award of Spanish Letters (2017) for her literary career, and international distinctions such as the Officière des Arts et des Lettres decoration awarded by the French Republic in 2024. Her work has been translated into more than twenty languages and adapted to film, theater, and opera.
