The Back Room by Carmen Martn Gaite

In the middle of the night, a woman awakens to find a stranger in her bedroom. Though she cannot determine who he is, or whether he is indeed real, she is drawn into a conversation. What she tells him becomes the story of a woman coming of age in Spain during Franco's rise to power.

"Carmen Gaite explores the back room of memory, a scary place sometimes, but one filled with treasures for readers who venture there"—The St. Petersburg Times

"The Back Room serves as a superb introduction to a writer who … deserves a wide readership among those who like fiction that risks a breach of habit."—The Boston Globe
