Una obra fascinante que describe los infiernos y los paraisos del amor y dibuja un rico mosaico historico sobre la asombrosa aventura de la existencia.Sabido es que hay amores que matan. Y en Pasiones, Rosa Montero da fe de ello a traves de la descripcion de dieciocho grandes idilios de todas las epocas. Son historias de pasiones famosas, solitarias o compartidas, de desgracias eternas y felicidades mas bien pasajeras.La autora nos acerca asi a las intensas relaciones que vivieron desde Marco Antonio y Cleopatra hasta Juana la Loca y Felipe el Hermoso, desde Eva Duarte y Juan Peron hasta John Lennon y Yoko Ono o como la de Lewis Carroll por la nina Alice Liddell.
