"A poignant collage of stories of women young and old, this novel from an Alfaguara Prize-winning author explores passion, bad decisions, and the scars left by relationships over time. Margarita suspects that her husband is having an affair with one of his students. Elizabeth tries to escape a shallow life of privilege in New York City in the fifties. Doris Dana, Gabriela Mistral's lover and executor, enjoys a passionate night of sex and alcohol with a childhood friend. Juliana, an eighty-plus-year-old baker, is eager to find the woman who changed the course of her life. Anne, the caretaker of a building, leaves in search of her true identity, while her mother must confront her deepest secret for the first time. With an extraordinary, and perfectly blended, mix of real and fictional characters, the past and present intertwine, they come face-to-face, and at last they question each other. One in Me I Never Loved is a compelling novel about freedom, love, sex, and the possibilities women have to discover their own limits"--
