Regal Lemon Tree

AN ARGENTINE CLASSIC: Saer is considered by many to be one of the greatest stylists of the twentieth century. (Alain Robbe-Grillet credited him with helping create the New Novel movement in France.) A recent focus on mid-century Latin American authors (Juan Carlos Onetti, Silvina Ocampo), the time is right to rediscover this modernist master.

EXPLORATION OF GRIEF: Despite its intricate plotting and imagery, The Regal Lemon Tree is a novel focused on the difficulty of overcoming a great loss, a universal, always timely topic.
