The natural disorder of things

Only the present matters, even when we haven't settled scores with the past. What does it take to mend a broken heart? Time, silence, and a new love. Time to erase the past, silence to never look back, and a new love to bring us the light and peace of a new day. This is the solitary path of Mafalda, a woman who, like so many others, lives torn between the ghost of a passion and the desire to risk again. And it is also the story of Rodrigo, who hesitates between doing what he believes is right and changing his life to be with the woman he loves. And also that of António, who destroyed his marriage and seeks a second chance to redeem himself. A woman and two men involved in a love triangle in which parallel time also runs. A novel that delves into fear and desire, without shame or filter, in an age where relationships are increasingly fleeting and inconsequential.
