Instantáneas de una vida. Un lienzo impresionista de momentos vitales: alegrías, dolor, recuerdos, anhelos… La madre fallecida hace años, pero cuya presencia se sigue sintiendo; la niñera de la infancia en Cadaqués; los hijos que crecen; los buenos y malos amantes; los editores, las lecturas, la escritura; los solitarios baños matutinos durante el verano; las pequeñas cosas que hacen que la vida merezca la pena; el encuentro fortuito con un amigo de la infancia ya olvidado y el hallazgo de un viejo amigo de la madre cuya pista se había perdido.

Milena Busquets practica en estos diarios una escritura de pinceladas impresionistas y logra que de lo cotidiano, de lo en apariencia anodino, emerja la epifanía. Este es un diario sobre días tristes y días felices −"La euforia y la felicidad absolutas están a un milímetro del ataque de pánico"−, escrito sin trampa ni cartón, sin falsos pudores, ni engolada pompa. Escrito siguiendo esta premisa: "Uno escribe solo ante el peligro, no hay otra manera honesta de hacerlo, el menor atisbo de autocomplacencia es una señal de cobardía.

Partiendo de lo ínitimo, Milena Busquets rompe fronteras y convierte en literatura las vivencias personales de un verano en Cadaqués. Cuando era niña, para ayudarla a superar la muerte de su padre, a Blanca su madre le contó un cuento chino. Un cuento sobre un poderoso em­perador que convocó a los sabios y les pidió una frase que sirviese para todas las situaciones posibles. Tras meses de deliberaciones, los sabios se presentaron ante el emperador con una propuesta: «También esto pasará.» Y la madre añadió: "El dolor y la pena pasan, como pasan la euforia y la felicidad."

Herr Ono ist unbemerkt verstorben. Allein. Es gibt viele wie ihn, immer mehr. Erst wenn es wärmer wird, rufen die Nachbarn die Polizei. Und dann Herrn Sakai mit dem Putztrupp, zu dem Suzu nun gehört. Sie sind spezialisiert auf solche Kodokushi-Fälle. "Fräulein Suzu", wie der Chef sie nennt, fügt sich widerstrebend in die neuen Aufgaben. Es braucht dafür viel Geduld, Ehrfurcht und Sorgfalt, außerdem einen robusten Magen. Die Städte wachsen, zugleich entfernt man sich voneinander, und häufig verschwimmt die Grenze zwischen Desinteresse und Diskretion.

Leaving Barcelona behind, she returns to Cadaqués on the coast, accompanied by her two sons, two ex-husbands, and two best friends, and makes a plan to meet her married lover for a few stolen moments as well.

Mr Katō—a curmudgeon and recent retiree—finds his only solace during his daily walks, where he wonders how his life went wrong and daydreams about getting a dog (which his wife won’t allow). During one of these walks, he is approached by a young woman. She calls herself Mie, and invites him to join her business Happy Family, where employees act as part-time relatives or acquaintances for clients in need, for whatever reason, if only for a day.

The #MeToo movement has focused public attention on the issue of sexual consent. People of all genders, from all walks of life, have stepped forward to tell their stories of sexual harassment and violation. In a predictable backlash, others have taken to mass media to inquire plaintively if "flirting" is now forbidden. This book presents key strands of feminist thought on the subject of sexual consent from across academic and activist communities and covers the history of research on consent in such fields as psychology and feminist legal studies.
