Description
1890. The small church that stands in Poblet receives the unexpected impulse of the fortune given by an unknown woman. The architect Gaudí took advantage of it to change its design to the one we know today: the Sagrada Familia. Well, what should have been an occasion of general jubilation and excessive euphoria will be nothing more than the beginning of a stark story of struggles and betrayals, a bloody battle that will be kept secret for one hundred and thirty years. A chronicle of sins that the reader will know today. And no one can imagine the plots of the (Episcopal) Palace hidden behind the Sagrada Familia, with Gaudí putting his position at the disposal of his illustrious on one occasion, resigning when he learned that he did not have the support of the bishop, with a fabulous cheque for 800,000 pesetas given to the architect that disappeared without a trace, and with Bishop Irurita ordering the construction to be abandoned and ordering the design of a simple church in its place just when the Civil War broke out, which prevented the plan from being carried to completion. After the success of La dama sin rostro, a novel that will arouse the most heated controversy.
