      Un hilo rebelde y lleno de nudos recorre la vida de las mujeres del siglo XX hasta hoy. Comenzamos con una chica abriéndose paso en Nueva York en 1912, seguida por relatos de la vida en Manhattan en los años cincuenta y las dudas de las mujeres en los inicios del feminismo. Ahora, el hilo llega a las vidas de cuatro estudiantes en los ochenta y noventa, en una época sin Facebook, donde compartían sus experiencias en un cuaderno de tapas rojas. Clover, Addison, Jane y Mia llenaron esas páginas, pero reencontrarse veinte años después para confrontar sueños y realidades resulta un desafío. A lo largo de un intenso y a veces doloroso fin de semana, las cuatro amigas se proponen reflexionar sobre su pasado y el presente. ¿Pueden unos días bien aprovechados transformar su mundo y ofrecerles una nueva perspectiva de la vida? Esta novela promete respuestas. "Una novela destinada a convertirse en un clásico... Un retrato de la mujer que puede compararse con El grupo de Mary McCarthy." Vanity Fair.

      El profesor de simbología Robert Langdon se despierta en un hospital en mitad de la noche, desorientado y con una herida en la cabeza. No recuerda nada de las últimas treinta y seis horas. Ni cómo ha llegado hasta allí, ni el origen del macabro objeto que los médicos descubren entres sus pertenencias. El mundo de Langdon pronto se convierte en un caos y se ve obligado a huir por las calles de Florencia junto con una inteligente joven, Sienna Brooks, cuyas hábiles maniobras le salvan la vida. Langdon no tarda en darse cuenta de que se encuentra en posesión de una serie de inquietantes códigos creados por un brillante científico; un genio cuya obsesión con el fin del mundo sólo es equiparable a la pasión que siente por una de las obras maestras más influyentes jamás escritas; "Inferno", el oscuro poema épico de Dante Alighieri.
