Garden by the Sea Rodoreda Merc
The novel that defined Merc Rodoreda's most prolific period is finally available in English for the first time. They swim, drink, tease each other, and fully enjoy themselves. Set in 1920s Spain, Garden by the Sea takes place over six summers at a villa by the sea inhabited by a young couple and their beautiful, rich, joyous friends.
As the true protagonist of the novel, we get to see the dissolution of these magical summers through his eyes, as a sense of darkness and ending creeps in, precipitated by the construction of a new, larger, more glamorous villa next door.Considered by many to be one of the greatest writers of the twentieth century, Rodoreda has captivated readers for decades with her exacting descriptions of life--and nature--in All the while, the guests are observed by the villa's gardener, a widower who's been tending the garden for several decades.
