A Veiga é como un tempo distinto Quotes

“[…] When you're far away, home is like a different time.
[…] To go to London, Hamburg, even Madrid or Barcelona, as some people go, was to really go: to be resigned to not seeing Veiga for a year or two. It was knowing that in your mind, Veiga was going to be frozen in that same moment when you left, and no child would be born or anyone die like Inés had. It was to accept that Veiga is like a different time. Going to Lugo or Coruña was a different thing. You went and came back every month, or every two months, and time kept passing too in Veiga, and people kept dying and being born, as always.
(p. 11-12)”
