Synopsis "La Tregua / Truce (in Spanish)"

Una novela sobre la soledad y la incomunicación, el amor y la sexualidad, la muerte y los problemas políticos. Martín Santomé, viudo con tres hijos, en las vísperas de su jubilación comienza a registrar en un diario su vida gris y sin relieve. La vida cotidiana de la rutina en la oficina y la de un hogar desunido y crispado se verán alteradas cuando irrumpe en su rutina la joven Laura Avellaneda, su nueva empleada. Y este hombre, casi sin proponérselo, decide abrir en su vida un paréntesis luminoso. La tregua se ha traducido a decenas de idiomas y ha sido adaptad al cine, la televisión, el teatro y la radio, pero que sobre todo ha gozado de la excepcional acogida de los lectores de todo el mundo. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Just before his retirement, Martín Santomé, a widower with three children, starts to document his dull grey life in a diary. The everyday routine at the office and in a tense, conflictfilled home starts to change with the arrival of young Laura Avellana, his new employee. And this man, almost without meaning to, decides to begin a luminous new chapter in his life. The Truce has been translated to dozens of languages and has been adapted for movies, television, and radio, but above all has enjoyed exceptional acclaim by readers around the world.

Mario Benedetti was born in Paso de los Toros, Uruguay in 1920. He was educated at a German school and made a living as a stenographer, cashier, salesperson, accountant, public servant, translator, and journalist, a profession he practiced for four decades at the weekly Marcha, until it was shut down by the dictatorship. That same dictatorship forced him into exile in 1973, after which he lived successively in Argentina, Peru, Cuba, and Spain. A storyteller, poet, essayist, and playwright, he authored more than seventy books translated into eighteen languages. Among his literary works, the poetic anthologies Inventario and Inventario Dos, the novels La tregua, Gracias por el fuego, Primavera con una esquina rota, the short story collections Montevideanos, La muerte y otras sorpresas, Con y sin nostalgia, and the verse novel El cumpleaños de Juan Ángel stand out.
