Manuela Castro is on page 192 of 345 of Hamnet
Lo que se nos da se nos puede quitar en cualquier momento. La crueldad y la devastación nos aguardan a la vuelta de cualquier esquina, dentro de un arcón, detrás de una puerta: saltan sobre una en cualquier momento como un ladrón o un bandido.

Manuela Castro
Manuela Castro is on page 162 of 224 of Las malas
Para morir se debe preparar la casa, recibir al niño que supimos ser. Saberle pedir perdón por tanta traición cometida, por tanta mentira, por tanta sistemática decepción, por el rumbo perdido, por tanta belleza pasada por alto.
