A Bridge over Elohim: A Rehabilitation Center Story (A Portrait of Lives Marked by Alcoholism)

By Ángel Francisco Sánchez Escobar

The bridge in this novel is more than a title-it's a powerful symbol of hope and the crossing of two destinies: the desperate struggle of addiction and the journey toward healing.

Step into Elohim, a modest rehabilitation center in rural Seville during the 1970s, where a diverse cast of characters comes together. There's Pedro, the director, rumored to be entangled with a patient; Vicenta, who is blind; Angeles, known as "the dancer"; Manolito, a bullfighting enthusiast living with schizophrenia; Petra, the nurse and nun; and Tomas, a volunteer whose past echoes through the center's halls.

As Christmas draws near, their lives begin to intertwine in unexpected ways. Through shared pain, quiet courage, and fragile hope, they must face their inner demons-and help each other find the path to the light. (Originally published in Spanish as Un puente sobre Elohim: Historia de hombres y mujeres con la enfermedad del alcohol)
