La isla (2021)
Published by Reservoir Books (Penguin)
What has been stolen from the sea will be returned to the sea. That was the basic idea, what the sea represents in the story of the characters. The sea as the source of life but also of the opposite; the sea as the beginning and the end of everything.
—Mayte Alvarado, in a 2021 interview in RTVE
