Book of the month: “Between Curtains” by Carmen Martín Gaite

COLLOQUIUM: Wednesday, April 21 at 19:30 p.m.

“Entre Visillos” narrates life in a provincial city -probably Salamanca full of routine, conservatism and hypocrisy. Through the apparently banal talk of a group of girls, we learn about their daily occupations - walks and first courtships, high school outings, movie sessions, dances at the Casino - their anxieties, their fear of being single, the insurmountable sadness that appears behind boredom and lack of imagination.”

Taken from Destination Publisher.
