Resumen
The Joy of Captain Ribot is a deeply emotional and morally layered novel that tells the story of Captain Enrique Ribot, a man of the sea whose seemingly carefree spirit masks a deeper inner world. Returning from years of naval service, Ribot enters a small coastal town in Spain where he encounters Cristina, a refined, intelligent woman — and the wife of his best friend.
Despite his noble intentions and moral restraint, Ribot finds himself entangled in a silent and painful love, torn between loyalty and passion.
The novel delicately explores the emotional struggle of a man who must choose between doing what is right and following his heart.
