«La canción de las cerezas» is the novel by Blanca Riestra, published by Algaida Editores in hardcover (308 pages, in Spanish).
A young woman arrives in Paris fleeing from herself and settles in an occupied house in the Place de la Bourse, where the city becomes a metaphor for the world. The novel narrates the protagonist's apprenticeship in life, her discovery of love and her search for happiness, with a tender, incisive and ironic tone and an awareness of loss that evokes Cioran.
It won the VI Premio Ateneo Joven de Sevilla and is Blanca Riestra's second novel. The book belongs to the Algaida Literaria - Premio Ateneo Joven de Sevilla collection.
Recommended for readers aged 14 and over interested in contemporary Spanish fiction and in coming-of-age stories set in Paris.
