On Friday, January 24 , at 7:00 p.m. , in the Auditorium of the Public Library of Palencia, the presentation of the book "The Beautiful Unknown" will take place. A story from that time by Joaquín Lorenzo Moreno.

In the 1970s, two young people, Carmen and Pedro, meet and fall in love. To see each other, they have to travel miles, outwit her maternal vigilance, take advantage of his few days off, count on the complicity of a friend, and fight against the social conditions of the time. And when they don't see each other, there are the letters they send each other and the dreams written in a diary, hoping that one day they can be together. But all dreams vanish the day Pedro disappears from Carmen's life - forever? The Beautiful Unknown is a novel set between the seventies of the last century and the present day and situated, above all, in the surroundings of the Spanish cities of Palencia and Valladolid, which thus also become protagonists of this story. The author narrates his chance meeting with the protagonist and how, before dying, he leaves him his diaries and some letters as a legacy, along with a very particular task: to find the protagonist of those diaries and author of the letters and bring her a last letter.
