Die Wintermädchen by Cristina Sánchez-Andrade

2.0

This Spanish novel about two sisters set in Spain, post world war 2 has an airy dreamy tone. It feels a bit like reading a magic realism story, except there is no real magic. Just some weird stuff. I didn't mind the style, but I found the story lacking and the characters remained flat. However, there were some images and scenes that have stayed with me, a month after having finished the book.

If you're into these kind of books - light and strange and without much to get your teeth into - then you might really enjoy The Winterlings.
