December Breeze

A masterful novel exploring womanhood, and the ties of a middle-class and traditional living in 1970s Colombia.


From her home in Paris, Lina recalls the story of three women whose lives unfold in the conservative city of Barranquilla in Colombia. Amongst parties at the Country Club and strolls along the promenade in Puerto Colombia, unfurls a story of sensuality suppressed by violence; a narrative of oppression in which Dora, Catalina and Beatriz are victims of a patriarchal system living in and among the fragile threads of the social fabric.


In Lina's obsessive recount of the past, this masterful novel transforms anecdotes of a life into an absolute view of the world, a profound panorama of Colombian society towards the end of the 70s. From personal memories to historical reality, the structure of this book is full of precision and poetry, along with the distant knowledge of a narrator who from afar immortalizes the events that happened in a small seaside town.


Distancing herself from her contemporaries of the Latin-American literary boom, Marvel Moreno narrates a reality that mirrors both a close-up to the private lives of the people of Barranquilla and to the human condition.



"One of the hundred most influential women in the history of Colombia."--Cromos magazine
