Her mother is dead, and Blanca is heading to Cadaqués, the family summer retreat by the sea. A story about mothers and daughters begins, exploring the depths of grief and the intricate beauties of life. "This too shall pass" tells of farewells in a place enchanted by the elegance of summer. When Blanca arrives in Cadaqués, she is not alone. Both ex-husbands are there, the shared children, friends, the lover; they all fill the house with life. For Blanca, a transcendent time begins: hours on the boat, breakfast under the blue sky, conversations deep into the night, alcohol, sex. And it would all be like always—if her deceased mother didn’t confront her at every turn, forcing Blanca to confront a consequential realization.
