"During their youth, Gabriel Aristu and Adriana Zuber starred in a passionate love story that seemed destined to last forever. The future, however, had other plans for them. Separated for fifty years by an ocean of incommunication, she trapped in the Spain of the dictatorship, he experiencing professional success in the United States, they meet again in the twilight of his days. Looks, caresses, silenced desires and old reproaches will then give way to the realization that the nostalgia for that first love is also nostalgia for the person we once were. I won't see you die is a novel about the power of memory and forgetting, loyalty and betrayal, the ravages of time and the obstinacy of love and its mirages. The moving story of a frustrated passion for life and a beautiful portrait of old age written with extreme delicacy" --
