Book Description:
Ainielle is a village high in the Spanish Pyrenees. Its houses are mostly deserted ruins and have been for years. Ainielle’s last surviving inhabitant, an old man at death’s door, lingers on, and as the “yellow rain” of leaves flutters around him and the first snows of the year fall, he recalls the life he lived and the ghosts-once his friends and neighbors who have taken possession of his solitude.
Hailed on first publication and continuously reprinted in Spain, The Yellow Rain is a haunting ode to the power of memory, an elegy for a landscape and a way of life.
Book Review
European PRAISE FOR THE YELLOW RAIN
“A beautiful book, a somber memoir and moving elegy for a lost part of the world.”-Le Monde (France)
“Recalls the work of García Márquez. But here, the baroque has been replaced by a shuddering lyricism.”-El Periodico (Spain)
