Synopsis "The Wind From the East (in English)"
The Wind from the East will sweep the reader away with its literary force, rhythm and narrative structure drawing you in with a distillation of human passions that are almost always in conflict with each other.-The European Internationally celebrated Almudena Grandes' finest work yet is a blend of two narratives set alternately in Madrid and an Andalusian town by the sea. Sara Gmes Morales, given up at birth to be raised by her wealthy godmother, is betrayed on her sixteenth birthday when she is forced to leave her godmother's home and return to live with her estranged parents in poverty. Tortured by resentment and the loneliness of belonging to neither place, she searches for solace in a coastal town. Parallel to Sara's story is the story of Juan and Damian Olmedo, brothers in love with the same woman. One night an argument incited by jealousy leads Damian to stumble down a flight of stairs and fall to his death. Suspected of murdering his younger brother, Juan flees to the same village that served as Sara's escape. Deftly engaging, The Wind from the East is an epic tale of love and redemption. Almudena Grandes' writing has been compared to the work of classic and contemporary voices such as the Bront sisters and Isabel Allende.
