The Bitter Lotus (1936) by Pulitzer Prize-winning Louis Bromfield is a kind of "continuation of the fates" of some of the characters from Bromfield's famous novel The Rains Are Coming, but set in a completely new, independent story.

The work is based on a true event that occurred in Spain in 1933: Aurora Rodriguez killed her daughter Hildegart, a famous fighter for women's emancipation and a cult figure on the political scene of the time.
