Publisher's summary

Cuba, años 70. Rosa cría a su hijo Sonny a escondidas en una casa de Placetas, convencida de ser la esposa de Dios y de que Su regreso al mundo de los hombres se encuentra próximo.

El ingreso hospitalario de la mujer, obliga a Sonny a salir de casa, provocando una notable conmoción entre sus vecinos. El muchacho no comprende nada. Por primera vez a sus dieciséis años de vida, se encuentra solo y desamparado, expuesto a la crudeza de un mundo que empieza ahora a mostrarse ante sus ojos en toda su plenitud.

Pequeñas ciudades de provincia, aldeas de bohíos, centros de reeducación para jóvenes conflictivos, hospitales. Un viaje agridulce a través de la Cuba rural en la plenitud del régimen castrista, vivido a través de la inocencia de quien todo lo descubre por primera vez.

Historia, romance, acoso escolar, suspense, sabotaje y muerte. ¿Locura o Voz Divina?
