Like other reviewers said, this reminded me of The Great Gatsby. I enjoyed it, but because I read it a few pages at a time over several weeks, I had difficulty remembering each character's storyline. There were so many characters with names beginning in M, E & F. I should have put together a cheat sheet! 😬 #boxwalla

Gatsby like Catalan story of a glamorous home by the sea where lots of wealthy friends come to enjoy the Summer. The story is told through the gardener‘s eyes. Stunning writing by the great Catalan writer, Rodoreda. #boxwalla

Book mail came early today. Was this a #blameitonLitsy purchase? I can‘t remember but I don‘t know how else I would have heard of it.

Sparklemn I received mine through my #boxwalla subscription. Excited to read it! 4y
