Let the married ones fear, let the single ones tremble

The Spaniards call each compatible pair "halves of an orange", like ours "two halves of an apple". What Yaxar means when he says "the other half of the minus orange" is that male-female relations are a delicate matter from start to finish. In reality, isn't it the "perfect harmony" that everyone is looking for between a man and a woman? And unfortunately, haven't we all seen that this "perfect harmony" can never be achieved, and that when it is achieved, things suddenly go the other way? Eusebbio is the taxi driver who meets America, who is addicted to radio chats and boasts of "modernity" and "leftism", at a hotel on the way to Toledo and finishes the job. America is Carlos' ex-wife, Carmen's business partner, and Alvaro's mistress, whose suitcase Ana puts at the door. Alvaro meets Ines, a lawyer who handles divorce cases. Ines's friend Almudena also loves to throw sumptuous dinner parties every Saturday at her ostentatious house, which is the latest creation of her husband, the architect Jesus, the architect's son... Things are quite complicated, so... Carmen Rico-Godoy writes her books as an invisible spoilsport. . Not only that, it gives strict and funny warnings about the worst of what will happen to you. Moreover, by taking sneaky pleasure from it. Still, you can't help but laugh while reading it, and of course you get poisoned while laughing. "Let Married People Fear, Let Singles Tremble" is an entertaining "nice book" that combines the annoying situations and colorful opportunities faced by married people and singles in today's Madrid. What it really says is that every married person is a potential bachelor and every single person is a potential married person. After all, who among us can know what will happen when and when in this matter of men and women?
