«Mont-Cinère» is the novel by Julien Green, published by Planeta in paperback (200 pages, in Spanish).
Young Emily grows up in Mont-Cinère, a large, icy house marked by the avarice of her mother and grandmother. The mother cuts expenses for fear of lacking everything and empties the property; the grandmother squanders what belongs to others. The urge to possess becomes contagious, and love only counts if it can yield something in return.
Originally published in 1926, this 1981 Spanish edition belongs to Planeta's Narrativa Collection (no. 53) and features a translation from the French by Enrique Sordo.
Julien Green, often Julian Green, was an American writer who lived most of his life in France and wrote mostly in French and only occasionally in English. Over a long and prolific career, he authored novels and essays, several plays, and a biography of Francis of Assisi, produced a four-volume autobiography, and for decades maintained a daily journal that he edited and published in nineteen volumes. The posthumous publication of the unexpurgated text of his journals presented a different version of his personality and sexuality, revealed details of the lives of many of his prominent contemporaries, and documented the gay subculture of 20th-century France.
