Los secretos que guarda la isla solo los desvelará el exilio.


El día comienza mal para Adela, joven neoyorquina de ascendencia cubana, cuando recibe la llamada de su madre. Llevan enfadadas más de un año, porque Adela no solo se ha trasladado a Miami, sino que vive con Marcos, un joven habanero recién llegado a Estados Unidos que la ha seducido por completo y al cual, por su origen, su madre rechaza. Marcos le cuenta a Adela historias de su infancia en la isla, arropado por un grupo de amigos de sus padres, llamado el Clan, y le muestra una foto de la última comida en que, siendo él niño, estuvieron juntos veinticinco años atrás. Adela, que presentía que el día se iba a torcer, descubre entre los rostros a alguien familiar. Y un abismo se abre bajo sus pies.

Como polvo en el viento es la historia de un grupo de amigos que ha sobrevivido a un destino de exilio y dispersión, en Barcelona, en el extremo noroeste de Estados Unidos, en Madrid, en Puerto Rico, en Buenos Aires... ¿Qué ha hecho la vida con ellos, que se habían querido tanto? ¿Qué ha pasado con los que se fueron y con los que decidieron quedarse? ¿Cómo les ha cambiado el tiempo? ¿Volverá a reunirlos el magnetismo del sentimiento de pertenencia, la fuerza de los afectos? ¿O sus vidas son ya polvo en el viento?

En el trauma de la diáspora y la desintegración de los vínculos, esta novela es también un canto a la amistad, a los invisibles y poderosos hilos del amor y las viejas lealtades.

Una novela deslumbrante, un retrato humano conmovedor, otra obra cumbre de Leonardo Padura.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION


The secrets that the island holds will only be revealed by exile.


The day starts badly for Adela, a young New Yorker of Cuban descent, when she gets a call from her mother. They have been angry for more than a year, because Adela has not only moved to Miami, but also lives with Marcos, a young man from Havana who has recently arrived in the United States who has completely seduced her and whom, because of his origin, her mother rejects. Marcos tells Adela stories of his childhood on the island, surrounded by a group of friends of his parents, called the Clan, and shows her a photo of the last meal they had had together twenty-five years ago as a child. Adela, who sensed that the day was going to go wrong, discovers someone familiar between the faces. And an abyss opens up beneath their feet.


Como polvo en el viento
(Like Dust in the Wind) is the story of a group of friends who have survived a fate of exile and dispersion, in Barcelona, in the extreme northwest of the United States, in Madrid, in Puerto Rico, in Buenos Aires...What has life done to them, who had loved each other so much? What has happened to those who left and those who decided to stay? How has time changed you? Will the magnetism of the feeling of belonging, the strength of affections, bring them together again? Or are their lives already dust in the wind?


In the trauma of diaspora and the disintegration of bonds, this novel is also a hymn to friendship, to the invisible and powerful threads of love and old loyalties. A dazzling novel, a moving human portrait, another masterpiece by Leonardo Padura.

The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Review – Effective Glow & Smooth Skin Treatment
Size: 3.4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I really like The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% toner. It helps exfoliate the skin and makes it look smoother, brighter, and more even over time. After regular use, my skin feels softer and looks more refreshed. It is also very affordable compared to many other skincare products, and a little goes a long way. The bottle lasts a long time, which makes it good value. However, it can be a bit strong for sensitive skin, so it’s important to start slowly and not overuse it. Also, sunscreen is important because it can make your skin more sensitive to the sun. Overall, it is a very effective exfoliating toner and a great addition to a skincare routine if used correctly.

The Ordinary Glycolic Acid has become one of my favorite skincare products. It makes my skin feel smoother, brighter, and much softer after consistent use. I’ve noticed improvement in dullness, rough texture, and even areas like my neck and scalp. A little goes a long way, and the bottle lasts forever for the price. I also love that it’s multi-use and can be used on more than just the face. You do have to be careful not to overuse it because it’s strong, but when used properly it gives amazing results. Such a great affordable skincare staple!

this is such a good product! i love it!!
Size: 8.11 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
i love this toner so much!! it has helped with my skin tremendously. if you are on the fence about it, just get it! its good for sensitive skin as well. i used to have those unexplainable bumps on my forehead for over a year but now they're gone and they were gone within one week of using it, it is such a good product!! i use it once every day at night but i have also heard people use it once or twice a week. this toner is also really good for dark armpits, BO or face, back and chest acne. its fragrance-free and the bottle size is pretty big and will last awhile. Highly recommend, 10 out of 10!

I've been using it for my acne on my side arm, I've been applying it everyday after I shower and I've noticed a big difference. It's less red and little to no acne on my right side.

The ordinary Glycolic acid 7%
Size: 8.11 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 8.11 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The Ordinary glycolic acid is really good — it made my skin smoother, brighter, and helped with dark spots without costing too much,easy to use , Just make sure to use sunscreen during the day since glycolic acid can make skin more sensitive to the sun.
