«Bilbao-New York-Bilbao» is the novel by Kirmen Uribe, published by Círculo de Lectores in hardback (200 pages, in Spanish).
The novel interweaves letters, diaries, emails and poems across three generations of a Basque family. Grandfather Liborio, a sailor who wanted to see a painting by Aurelio Arteta, and his grandson Kirmen, who traces those stories on a flight from Bilbao to New York, form the backbone of a mosaic: a tribute to a nearly vanished world and a song to the continuity of life.
Work originally published in Basque in 2008; this Spanish edition includes the translation by Ana Arregi. National Narrative Prize 2009 and Critics' Prize for Narrative in Basque 2008.
For readers of contemporary narrative and literary fiction interested in Basque family memory.
