Set in 1920s Spain, Garden by the Sea takes place over six summers at a villa by the sea inhabited by a young couple and their beautiful, rich, joyous friends. They swim, drink, tease each other, and fully enjoy themselves. All the while, the guests are observed by the villaâs gardener, a widower whoâs been tending the garden for several decades. As the true protagonist of the novel, we get to see the dissolution of these magical summers through his eyes, as a sense of darkness and ending creeps in, precipitated by the construction of a new, larger, more glamorous villa next door. 650 0 $a Gardeners $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Suburban homes $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Spain $v Fiction. 650 7 $a FOREIGN LANGUAGE STUDY / Romance Languages (Other) $2 bisacsh 655 7 $a Novels. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01921742 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a RelanÌo, Maruxa, $e translator. 700 1 $a Tennent, Martha, $e translator. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20200402013621.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=603948C074A711EA8EBE956E97128E48 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
