«Intercambio con un inglés» is the young adult novel by Christine Nöstlinger, published by Espasa in paperback (152 pages, in Spanish).
Ewald doesn't master English, and his mother invites an English boy to spend the holidays at home so he can practise. But the one who arrives isn't the model student expected, but Jasper, his older brother, a troubled lad who disrupts family harmony. Ewald recounts in his diary a forced cohabitation that speaks of integration and tolerance.
The original German title of the novel is «Das Austauschkind» (1982). The Spanish translation is by Luis Pastor.
For young readers aged 14 and up, and for those seeking novels about cohabitation, integration and family relationships.
