«Oro» is the contemporary fiction novel by Dan Rhodes, published by Alfaguara in paperback (208 pages, in Spanish).
Miyuki Woodward, daughter of a Welsh woman and a Japanese man, is happy with her routine: every year she spends two weeks in the same Welsh village pining for her girlfriend Grindl. But this time she decides to do something different, and that small gesture triggers unforeseen consequences. A bittersweet comedy that blends black humor with a bucolic setting.
Originally published as «Gold» in 2007, this Spanish edition belongs to Alfaguara's Literaturas collection.
Recommended for readers of contemporary fiction who enjoy black humor and bittersweet stories.
