GRUPO PLANETA - LAS EDADES DE LUL | POCKET EDITION

A long love story that, like any love and sex story that does not resign itself to stopping, becomes more complex and involving.

Synopsis of The Ages of Lulu:

Still immersed in the fears of a childhood lacking affection, Lulú, a fifteen-year-old girl, succumbs to the attraction exerted on her by a young man, a family friend, whom until then she had vaguely desired. After this first experience, Lulú, eternal child, feeds for years, alone, the ghost of that man who ends up accepting the challenge of prolonging indefinitely, in their peculiar sexual relationship, the love game of childhood. Create a separate world for her, a private universe where time loses value.

But the risky spell of living outside of reality is abruptly broken one day, when Lulú, now thirty years old, rushes, helplessly but feverishly, into the hell of dangerous desires.
