Description

Spring, 1974. After twelve years abroad, Natalia Miralpeix returns to Barcelona and her family.

Change is in the air: revolution sexual, political and artistic is simmering.

Franco may still be in power, but his death is only two years away.

The younger generation write poetry, listen to Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin, and talk of a freer future.

The older generation, though, carry the hidden wounds of the Civil War, their divided loyalties, and their own thwarted dreams, rebellions and desires. Translated here for the first time into English, Montserrat Roig's The Time of Cherries is a beloved classic of Catalan literature, bold and startlingly fresh.

As it dips in and out of timelines, stories and voices, it evokes a gritty and headilycaptivating Barcelona; a city and a people striving to leave the ghosts of the past behind, find a place in this invigorating new world and bring in the time of cherries, the springtime of joy.
