Summary

Premio Alfaguara 2020

Marina, una mujer casada, con tres hijos, con una vida familiar resuelta, coreógrafa de cierto prestigio, se ve involucrada en un amorío improbable con un hombre impensable. 


Salvar el fuego retrata dos Méxicos completamente escondidos uno del otro, en los que Marina, que pertenece a la clase social más alta, se vincula con un hombre al extremo de la sociedad.

Esta es una novela que retrata las contradicciones de un país y las contradicciones más hondas de la naturaleza humana. Es una novela de amor y es una novela que al final termina por brindar esperanza. 

«Un autor absolutamente único.».-Guadalupe Nettel

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Winning novel of the Premio Alfaguara de Novela 2020  

Marina, a married woman and mother of three, with a conventional and organized family life, is a choreographer of a certain prestige, and gets involved in an unlikely affair with an unthinkable man.


Saving the Fire portrays two Mexicos completely different from each other, in which Marina, who is part of the highest social class, is linked to a man considered to be at the extreme bottom of society.

Saving the Fire is a novel that portrays the contradictions of a country as well as human nature’s deepest contradictions. This is a love story; it is a novel which at the end, offers much hope.
