Cremation / by Chirbes, Rafael,1949-2015,author.(CARDINAL)434925; Miles, Valerie,1963-translator.(CARDINAL)617157;
"Along the Mediterranean coastline of Spain, real-estate developers scramble to transform the once pastoral landscape into tourist resorts, nightclubs, and beachfront properties with lavish bars and pools. The booming post-Franco years have left everything up for grabs. Cremation opens with the death of Mat?ias, a paterfamilias who had rejected all of these changes and whose passing sets off a chain reaction, uncovering a past that had been buried for years, and leading those closest to him to question the paths they've chosen.
