Rain Over Madrid

A collection of four novellas&quote;Fatherhood,&quote; &quote;Guile,&quote; &quote;Fidelity&quote; and &quote;Shopping&quote;where intense loneliness and desire guide an alienated cast of characters. In these poignant depictions of repression and guilt Barba captures existential mystery in seemingly banal moments of domestic strife, family tension, and romantic entanglements.
