Description

Maite es una de las trabajadoras más eficientes de la fábrica. No le queda otro remedio: podría pagar con su vida cualquier infracción. Maite cultiva en secreto una gran pasión, el canto, y sueña con llegar algún día al legendario jardín del fin del mundo. Se dice que allí los rebeldes viven en total libertad y que es el único lugar donde aún sobreviven las luciérnagas. Su país, tras un largo conflicto, se ha convertido en una prisión fría y adusta. Las artes y las ciencias han pasado a ser un coto privado para una casta de elegidos, mientras el resto de la población está condenada a una vida llena de privaciones y fatigas. Todo ello para evitar el caos… El único momento de distracción es la Ceremonia, una gran fiesta que se celebra todos los años para conmemorar el advenimiento de este nuevo régimen que se denomina Renacer. Maite siempre ha querido estar con los de arriba, pero el día en el que logra resarcirse al fin de los años de amargura descubrirá que, cuando se vive en un país donde ha muerto la esperanza, los sueños pueden convertirse en pesadillas.
