A gripping, emotional, and profoundly human portrait of modern immigration.
From the acclaimed, award-winning writer Jorge Becerra comes Hot Beds, a novel that takes us straight into the heart of those who leave their homes in pursuit of a dream. This bold and moving story captures the immigrant experience from every angle: hopes, defeats, sacrifices, and the unexpected human connections formed along the journey.
The narrative follows Daniela, a courageous and resilient woman whose difficult childhood and adolescence propel her across the ocean in search of a fresh start. Alongside her is Toño, a young bullfighter brimming with dreams, navigating the art of bullfighting and complicated love, who finds strength and refuge in Daniela. Together, along with numerous other unforgettable characters, they seek something to fill their souls-be it a new homeland, a new life, or simply a place to call home.
At Rossi's Bar, a gathering point for migrant souls in Madrid, stories of triumph and heartbreak intersect. MarÃa Eugenia, a nomadic, indomitable mother; Giselle, the miniskirted woman whose smile hides many secrets; Rafael Caiza, an Ecuadorian gardener who symbolizes a silent epic struggle; and Myriam, a woman chasing an impossible love-these are just a few of the characters whose profound humanity captivates readers. Through their intertwined stories, Jorge Becerra unveils the complexities and contradictions of displacement and the relentless fight for survival in a world often hostile to outsiders.
