A long awaited book, just arrived from Spain through BM.


This is the story of Andrea who moves from the countryside to Barcelona in order to perform her universities studies on literature.

After the Spanish Civil War and under Franco's regime, Andrea suffers a lot of turmoil emotions regarding her family and her close friends as well.

This a very touching novel by Carmem Laforet showing in Andrea's auto-biographical story how she made her journey towards adulthood.

Lance Greenfield Your review is a bit minimalist, but it is enough to tweak my interest and take a look. I find the region and the period intriguing anyway, so . . .


Laura Lance, sorry about that but I always try to avoid spoilers in my reviews. If you like contemporary Spanish literature, go ahead, I really liked this book.


Laura Thanks Jeanette even if my review is quite minimalist as Lance pointed out.

Lance Greenfield I hope that you didn't think I was being rude, Laura. In retrospect, it may look that way.

I actually liked your review, and it definitely did tweak my interest.


Laura Not at all Lance, on the contrary. I do appreciate honest comments, you know that. Sometimes I am extremely cautions against some spoiler in my reviews but it is not an easy task.
