Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Diana O’Toole has her life meticulously planned: marriage by thirty, kids by thirty-five, and a successful career in the competitive art auction world. As an associate specialist at Sotheby’s, she’s on the brink of a promotion, especially with a romantic getaway to the Galápagos on the horizon, where she expects her boyfriend, Finn, to propose just before her thirtieth birthday. However, a virus emerges, and Finn must stay behind for work, urging her to go alone to avoid wasting their nonrefundable trip. Diana’s vacation quickly spirals into chaos. Her luggage is lost, Wi-Fi is scarce, and the hotel is shut down due to the pandemic, leaving her stranded on the island. Isolated and forced out of her comfort zone, she begins to connect with a local family, particularly a teenager who confides in her despite parental reservations. As she navigates the challenges of quarantine in the Galápagos, the birthplace of Darwin’s theory of evolution, Diana reflects on her relationships and life choices. This unexpected journey prompts her to consider whether she will return home as a transformed person, having evolved in ways she never anticipated.
