Divorce is in the Air

English

By (author): Gonzalo Torne

Translated by: Megan McDowell

Joan-Marcs out of work, hes alone, he has a heart condition, his mothers addicted to pills, he cant stand his sister. Otherwise, life is beautiful.

And theres a lot that his estranged second wife doesnt know about him. But in Divorce is in the Air he now sets out to tell her. He begins with the failure of his first marriage, describing a holiday taken in a last-ditch attempt to salvage a once passionate relationship.

Recalling this ill-fated trip triggers a life-storys worth of flashbacks. From pivotal childhood scenes his earliest sexual encounters, his fathers suicide he moves on through the years, hopscotching between Barcelona and Madrid, describing a life of indulgence and of appetites.

The result is an unapologetic, daring, acerbic novel by an electrifying young writer about love and the end of love, and how hard it can be to let go.
