Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

Seven Views of the Same Landscape, by acclaimed Spanish author Esther Tusquets, is a beautiful collection of coming-of-age tales that unfold in postwar Barcelona. The young Sara is entranced by the glittering, sheltered world of her parents, the Catalan upper-middle class who sided with Franco in the Civil War. But she soon begins to discern the fault lines running through the larger social landscape, and to sense the hypocrisy and cruelty of her parents' inbred clan. As remembered episodes told largely from the child's perspective, the tales draw us into Sara's consciousness as she tries to fathom the mysterious world around her, in a deep and nuanced portrayal of a girl's inner life. Rendered in Tusquets' flowing musical prose, the stories offer a uniquely feminine vision of a girl's quest to find love and meaning in an alien adult world.
