Discontent

A sexy and hilarious Spanish bestseller, where a young woman's office persona threatens to crack when she's forced to attend her company's annual retreat

Life can't go on like this - can it? This book is for everyone who has ever wanted more- more time, more meaning, more connection.

On the surface, Marisa's life looks enviable. She lives in a nice apartment in the heart of Madrid, her friendly neighbour and lover Pablo lives downstairs, and she's risen quickly through the ranks at a successful advertising agency.

And yet Marisa hates her job and everything about it. Over one hot summer she finds herself in danger of being exposed when she's forced to deliver a talk on creativity at a horrendous team-building retreat. Surrounded by psychopathic bosses, flirty facilitators, and an excess of drugs, Marisa is pushed to the brink of a complete spiral.

Discontent is a bold, biting novel about acting on our wilder impulses to reclaim our lives from work.
