A few hours later, his widow, Martina, appears dressed as a bride almost in the same place. From that moment, the author rewinds the story to the time the couple met, when Ulises was a literature teacher, and Martina, a daydreaming waitress at her fathers bar. The tedium takes a toll on their marriage. He wants to be a real sailor, tired of all the Greek classics. She expected something else of married life. One day Ulises disappears, and no sign of his body is found. Martina marries with an important local businessman. She apparently is happy with her new life until the day her first husband appears in the middle of a big party at her new house. The renew their relationship until events lead to the finding of both corpses that opens the novel.

A beautifull history,
By A Customer
This review is from: Son de Mar (Hardcover)
Nice style of writting, dramatic and beautiful love history. I rode this book six month ago but I still dream with Ulises and Martina. Congratulations to Manuel Vincent.
4.0 out of 5 stars
amor o aroma,
This review is from: Son de Mar (Hardcover)
Un libro maravilloso, irónico, original, muy poético. Me gustó mucho, aunque creo que no llega a 100 años de soledad, ni lo pretende. También me llamó la atención el hecho que el amor es tan ciego, intercambiable, las ganas que tenemos de vivirlo y encontrarlo superan nuestros instintos: si es Ulises o no lo es, en el fondo no importa tanto. Importan las primaveras con sus aromas que vuelven siempre para volvernos locos de deseo.
