«Arroz de Palma» is the family novel by Francisco Azevedo, published by Círculo de Lectores in hardback (316 pages, in Spanish).
Antonio, an eighty-eight-year-old cook, prepares a meal to bring his whole family together. His memories span a century of a family that emigrated from Portugal to Brazil, with weddings, quarrels, births and losses. The common thread is the rice that Aunt Palma gave to the clan's founders on their wedding day: a symbol of fertility and eternal love.
2013 edition with illustrated dust jacket. The translation of the Portuguese original O arroz de Palma is by Ana Belén Costas.
For readers of contemporary fiction and family novels, especially those who enjoy stories of immigration and culinary tradition.
