具体描述
The inspiring New York Times bestseller of a seemingly ordinary woman who uses her talent and courage to transform herself first into a prestigious couturier and then into an undercover agent for the Allies during World War II.
Between Youth and Adulthood . . .
At age twelve, Sira Quiroga sweeps the atelier floors where her single mother works as a seamstress. By her early twenties she has learned the ropes of the business and is engaged to a modest government clerk. But then everything changes.
Between War and Peace . . .
With the Spanish Civil War brewing in Madrid, Sira impetuously follows her handsome new lover to Morocco, but soon finds herself abandoned, penniless, and heartbroken. She reinvents herself by turning to the one skill that can save her: creating beautiful clothes.
Between Love and Duty . . .
As World War II begins, Sira is persuaded to return to Madrid, where she is the preeminent couturiere for an eager clientele of Nazi officers’ wives. She becomes embroiled in a half-lit world of espionage and political conspiracy rife with love, intrigue, and betrayal. A massive bestseller across Europe, The Time In Between is one of those rare, richly textured novels that enthrall down to the last page. María Dueñas reminds us how it feels to be swept away by a masterful storyteller.

读后感
有趣的是在看完本书之后，我真的在网络上查找了一些书中提到的人物，比如贝格贝尔，比如塞拉诺•苏聂尔，不过可惜的是唯一可以明确查到的就是弗朗哥，他的名字和几个足球球星并列在网络百科上，其他人的名字几乎毫无线索，只有极少的同名者或者公司，如果这些人物真的在历史...
评分小说读多了，读者难免变得挑剔。寻找意义，要求被打动，盼望有那么些让人回味的句子。法国有种猪经过训练，可以在初夏的野地里寻找松露，小说读者和松露猪有点相像，只不过其寻觅是自发的。在小说里的世界里拱啊拱，调动嗅觉和其他感官，然后遇见一本“好看的书”，那种快...
评分这是一本一经面世便饱受评论界赞誉的书，有人称它是一本西班牙语的《飘》，有人称它是《卡萨布兰卡》的新一次演绎，而在略萨的口中，它是“一部充满阴谋、爱情、神秘和柔情的神奇小说”。关于自己这本处女作的一系列评价，西班牙作家玛利亚.杜埃尼亚斯（María Dueñas Vinue...
评分西班牙是君主立宪制国家，这个位于欧洲西南部的美丽国度直至1978年才修订出现行宪法。究其原因，或许不得不归咎于1936年由国民军与长枪党人联手引发的西班牙内战，这场长达3年的血腥内战是自法兰西大革命之后在西欧上演的最大规模的内战，多个国家卷入其中，不仅导致西班...
评分文/李伟长 ，不算严格意义上的书评，权当故事简介加述评。 这部厚达568页、长达40万字、销量150万册的西班牙超级畅销长篇小说，花了我整整一个星期才啃完。好在小说里有个不错的故事，故事里有个迷糊的傻姑娘，以及一个堪称极品的浪荡负心汉，这点辛苦倒也值得，也没有辜负诺...
