About This Book

A group of relatives and friends spend a summer at an ancestral house in northern Spain, experiencing coastal and mountain excursions, local fiestas, antiquities, and village life. Two young women newly returned from a convent adapt to unfamiliar customs while flirtations, misunderstandings, and gentle rivalries develop around a shy local gentleman and other companions. The episodic narrative mixes travel description, light comedy, folk encounters—including gipsies and romerias—and quiet personal discoveries, resolving through warm social reconciliations and a sense of restored contentment.
