About the author

Almudena Grandes

86 books1,931 followers
She studied Geography and History at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid. She was married to the poet Luis García Montero. In 1989 she won the La Sonrisa Vertical prize with her erotic novel Las edades de Lulú, which has been translated into several languages. Bigas Luna made a movie based on this book, as did Gerardo Herrero with Malena es un nombre de tango and Juan Vicente Córdoba with El lenguaje de los balcones in his film Aunque tú no lo sepas.

As Emilie L. Bergmann said, her novel Las edades de Lulú (1989) "represented a breakthrough for eroticism in women's writing".

Her books speak about the Spanish people in the last quarter of the 20th century and the first years of the 21st century. She shows in them a great realism and an intense psychological introspection.

“El amor de la carne mortal se desvanece en esa versión oficial de la historia que termina siendo la propia Historia”

En los libros de Historia no caben unos ojos abiertos en la oscuridad, ni el deseo cocinándose poco a poco o una travesura intrascendente… en los libros de Almudena Grandes, sí. ❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹

almudena grandes sabe plasmar de una manera maravillosa la historia del bando que perdió la guerra y como La Historia es condicionada por el amor de los personas porque como ella dice constantemente en esta increíble novela: La historia inmortal hace cosas raras cuando se cruza con el amor de los cuerpos mortales
