In this collection, Fina Casalderrey regales us with five stories written in the starry firmament of night. In the title story, a woman moves with her husband to a house in the village, where she plans to give birth, and is approached by a gardener who offers to tend the garden at night. In Appointment in the Gardens of the South, a descendant of Galician emigrants to Argentina is drawn to a bronze statue whose face he cannot make out, which leads him to dig into his memory. In Gusts of Mist, a woman walks the Northern Way to Santiago de Compostela in pursuit of happiness. In Residence Zero, an artist moves to a new housing development in search of space, but finds it unsettling. In An Ice Cream for Life, a man is shocked to discover that he has no heart. This book is reminiscent of another classic of Galician literature, When There's a Knock on the Door at Night, also available from Small Stations Press.
