Amira, a prestigious writer marked by the failure of her latest book, faces her most feared challenge: finding her own voice. Immersed in a deep crisis that affects both her literary creation and her private life, she uses her new novel as a mirror, laying bare the parallels between her protagonist's emotions and her own. Her dissatisfaction and rejection of the cultural environment that surrounds her are mixed with memories of her past, including a romantic relationship with three antagonistic men who act as fragmented mirrors of her search for recognition. However, it will be the luminous presence of friendship that brings her back to the essence of humanity. This search for meaning and the need to rethink her existence take an unexpected turn when a tragic event shakes her life forever. Conquistarás la lluvia addresses the fragility of success and the eternal need to love, even when the heart--like the rain--resists being conquered. With this work, María Asunción Mateo paints one of the most evocative female portraits in recent literature. A memorable novel, imbued with feeling and depth.
