Las condiciones de debilidad extrema en las que se encuentra hacen que sea evacuado al hospital número uno de la Cruz Roja, ubicado en el Casino de Le Touquet-Paris-Plage. Allí es atendido por la enfermera voluntaria Gala Eliard, una fascinante aristócrata que huye de un pasado tormentoso y a la que le impulsa la necesidad de salvar la vida de al menos un solo hombre. El breve encuentro entre ambos, que tiene lugar durante tan solo ocho días, cambiará para siempre el mundo creativo del escritor y encenderá la chispa que inspirará la creación de uno de sus personajes más poderosos, la elfa Galadriel, y del que será uno de los mayores fenómenos literarios del siglo XX.

No Tolkien fan can miss this novel.
On the 50th anniversary of J. R. R. Tolkien's passing, Alicia García-Herrera has written an exciting novel that reveals the origin of one of the greatest literary phenomena of the twentieth century: The Lord of the Rings.
A beautiful story of mercy, redemption, and love that will last long after death.
Front at the Somme, October 1916. After Regina Trench was attacked, signal officer J. R. R. Tolkien falls ill with quintan fever. Due to his extreme weakness, he is evacuated to hospital number one of the Red Cross, at the Le Touquet-Paris-Plage Casino. There he is cared for by nurse Gala Eliard, a fascinating aristocrat running from a troubled past, driven by the need to save the life of at least one man. Their brief encounter, which lasts only eight days, would forever change the author's creative world and spark his inspiration to create one of the most powerful characters, the elf Galadriel, in what would become one of the greatest literary phenomena of the twentieth century. Alicia García-Herrera has a masters degree and a doctorate by the Universitat de València, and has devoted her work mostly to social and human sciences research. She collaborates in the culture section of La Vanguardia journal and its supplement, Revista de Letras. She has also collaborated with literary magazines such as Quimera, La Retaguardia, Mercurio, and Crátera, apart from being a lecturer. In 2017, she received the first narrative award given by the Dirección General de l'Institut Valencià per les Dones i per la Igualtat de Gènere, with her story "Progreso Street 36, For Sale." She has written two law essays and the informational work That Was Not in My Greek Mythology Book (Almuzara, 2021). The White Lady (Plaza & Janés, 2023), about writer J. R. R. Tolkien, is her first novel.

PRICEY and sometimes don’t stay in place!
These have a wonderful mild flavor, no mint burn, moisten your mouth for several hours, and generally always stay put, in fact if you want it out before fully dissolved, it takes a little effort with your fingernail, because they are supposed to stick and stay in place! ALSO, I DO NOT PUT ON MY GUMLINE LIKE THE INSTRUCTIONS SAY, I STICK ON THE ROOF OF MY MOUTH FOR DISCREET CONFORT!!
I really do recommend for DRY MOUTH!! I DO NOT CARE FOR THE SHARP EDGY METAL INDIVIDUAL PACKAGING AT ALL, but the bottle is very pricey!!

Absolutely work!
These are absolutely fantastic. Bygone are the days of sucking on some sugary sweet Candy. Xylo melts stick as they say they do. I have found that they don't stick to artificial teeth as well. They last for hours they're comfortable. The mint ones aren't overpowering. These are a dry mouth blessing. For sure use them at night and during the day.

Invaluable sleep/ dry mouth aid
Cannot live even one night without these Xylimelts. Taste great. Stick well to mouth. Remember: poisonous to dogs. Now we have a dog so I no longer buy the bottles of loose melts as I can spill in middle of night and lose track. Extremely nerve wracking. Using the sheets of melts which you punch out one at a time. Easier to insure dog’s safety.

They may have saved my life!
These are fantastic for people with dry mouth! They have been a lifesaver for me. I HIGHLY recommend them to everyone! I carry them in my bag as well. Thanks to the one who invented them. I feel normal again!!! Easy to pop in mouth and they last overnight too.

Wow!!!

XyliMelts were recommended by my new dental hygienist who said she was told about them at a dental conference by a well known hygienist "guru".
I ordered them at around four in the morning because I was up as usual because if my chronic pain syndrome and the dry mouth caused by my pain pills.
I got them quickly via Amazon and have not been up again this time of night due to the dry mouth. Now I'm up due to the pain but can fall asleep quickly because of the XyliMelts, they work great!
I only use one at a time and it lasts around four hours and I put in another one and go right back to sleep. It's so easy to push the little tab out of the cellophane and just hold it on my gum for ten seconds and voila! No more dry mouth. I used to wake up with my mouth so dry there was no saliva at all in my mouth and parched was an understatement, my mouth felt like sandpaper!
Now it's always nice and moist and the taste is extremely pleasant (I didn't get the mint). I had to have two teeth extracted four days before Christmas and my dentist said it was due to the dry mouth and that he sees patterns like this in patients with dry mouth and I'd probably lose more teeth unless I came in for cleanings and check ups three times a year instead of two and we kept a really close eye on my teeth.
I'd been using Biotene gel but it wasn't keeping my mouth moist long enough. I'm extremely happy with XyliMelt! I'm also 100% sure I won't be losing any more teeth due to my night time dry mouth because it's a thing of the past!
Thanks to amazon prime shipping I got my XyliMelts very quickly, and my nighttime dry mouth is a thing of the past!
I know they don't claim to stop cavities but without the dry mouth and my new commitment to see my dentist three times a year and to always always brush my teeth before I fall asleep (no more Rolos in bed after I've done my final teeth brushing), I'm confident my dentist won't see a tooth loss pattern in my mouth.
