Far
by Rosa Ribas & Charlotte Coombe (translator)
Far by Rosa Ribas, one of Spain’s foremost noir authors, is an unconventional love story and mystery, set on a residential development, unfinished because of the construction crash. Tensions rise between the small community of residents who bought into the dream and people on the fringes of society who occupy the abandoned buildings behind a high metal fence. An unsettling page-turner and insightful social commentary that gives an atmospheric picture of post-crash Spain, Far is a must for lovers of JG Ballard or Lawrence Osborne.
