Ce roman, dans le cadre de la Louisiane où l'auteur a longtemps vécu, narre la très belle histoire d'amour pour le même homme de deux femmes, l'une Américaine, l'autre Paraguayenne, qui se déchirent avant le passage d'un ouragan sur la ville de la Nouvelle-Orléans. La violence des intempéries, propice au viol sauvage de l'une d'elles, rapprochera les deux figures féminines, remarquablement peintes par l'écrivain Alain Saint-Saëns.

Renée Ferrer's first novel, Los nudos del silencio, has been translated into Italian and French, and is now presented in English. This complex narrative of intrigue, memories, and suspense merits the attention of an active and perceptive audience that can piece together the variegated lines of thought shared by the protagonists of the novel.
