The Tale of Senyor Rodriguez - Paperback

by Lou Gilmond (Author)

A dead man's house. A dead man's clothes. And a dead man's wine cellar... It's 1960s Mallorca. Thomas Sebastian, an English conman, is hiding out in the house of the late Senyor Rodriguez - carousing, partying, and falling in love with his beautiful but impossibly young neighbour, Isabella Ferretti. As the boundary between lies and reality blurs, Thomas' fiction spirals out of control in ways that are quite unexpected.

Author Biography

Lou Gilmond is an alumna of the Curtis Brown Creative Writing School and also has a diploma in Creative Writing from the University of Oxford, England. 'The Tale of Senyor Rodriguez' is Lou's debut novel, inspired by the magical City of Palma and the surrounding countryside to the south west of the island. Here sheep still wander freely with bells around their necks and potter along to the whistle of the shepherd. Lou is hopeful another book will follow soon, but as London is the location for the writing, it is likely to involve less sheep.
