Añadir al carritoTrade Paperback. Condición: Fine. First Edition. 217 Pages. This is the April 2017 Edition with attractive covers with flaps. Loreta is a young woman with Swiss and Spanish blood. Still as a child after the divorce of her parents she went with her mother back to live in Switzerland, where she grew up. After a disappointment in love, she decided to travel to Spain to find her father, whom she has not seen for a long time, and with whom she has maintained only sporadic contact through the years. She packed her belongings into her small car and headed for Almeria. Upon arrival, she could not find her father immediately, and on a hot summer afternoon she got lost between the greenhouses of St. Augustin. Momey, who had been studying informatics in Algeria, was forced to quit his studies due to the severe illness of his mother. He thus had to look for a job to help his family, because their economic reserves were all needed for medical treatments and hospital bills. As there were no suitable jobs available, his father heeded the advice of his own brother - who later turned out to be a human tracker - and decided to send Momey along with Momey's younger brother to Spain, to find success there. For this they have to cross the Mediterranean in a dilapidated boat together with 38 other men coming from Africa. A tragic accident occurs during this crossing. On that afternoon, when Loreta is lost between the greenhouses, Momey who by then heads a group of workers there, finds her unconscious and helps her to find the way out. Loreta finds her father just when he is handcuffed, arrested on suspicion of murder. Father and daughter exchange some words under tears. She stays with her paternal grandmother, and despite the terrible events, begins to think that she wants to start a new life there in Andalusia. She plans to open her own business. She believes in her father´s innocence, and provides him with support so that he can overcome the difficult moments he is going through. The father, who for many years led a disorderly and aimless life, finds in jail a cellmate, who motivates and initiates him in flamenco singing, as an infallible method to leave behind his bad life and depressions.

Añadir al carritoTrade Paperback. Condición: Very Good. First Edition Stated. 204 Pages. Very attractive book with flaps. This is a July 2018 Edition In this selection of short stories, the Swiss author Dill McLain tries to convey to us, how sometimes in most critical moments, we should never stop struggling, but cling to a hope. Through her simple, direct and humorous lyrics; when a great love tells us goodbye, when crises and problems of everyday life overwhelm us, when things seem absolutely lost, suddenly life can take a turn, showing us that, maybe around the next corner, a better future or real love might be waiting for us. They are fictional stories, inspired by observations and experiences of long journeys in Spain and Portugal. At midnight in Adra, the short story that gives the title to the book, tells us the story of Amelv, a young Frenchwoman traveling with her fiance - to whom she has been engaged for six years - along the Andalusian coast. On the way to Malaga, they are stopped by the police and arrested, after discovering a considerable amount of drugs hidden away in the car. She had no idea of the secret life of her fiance as drug trafficker, and is released by the police, to find herself lost and desperate in an unknown town on the Andalusian coast. That night she sleeps on the beach. On the following day, she is woken up by a small doggie who in some way is responsible tor the coming big change in her life. The author offers us entertaining stories, which invite us to never give up, not to lose faith, and to always trust that tomorrow can undoubtedly be better.
