Seven Views of the Same Landscape
註釋Fiction. Translated from the Spanish by Barbara F. Ichiishi. SEVEN VIEWS OF THE SAME LANDSCAPE is a beautiful collection of coming-of-age tales that unfold in post-Civil War Barcelona. Told as remembered episodes largely from a child's perspective, the young Sara is entranced by the glittering, sheltered world of her parents who had 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. Rendered in Tusquets's 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.
