Die Tränen der Welt

A tale of love, ambition, and political turmoil set in turn-of-the-century Barcelona. Artist Dalmau Sala lives in two worlds - his day job designing tiles for a ceramics factory, and his passion for selling his art to high society. But his relationship with his great love, Emma, falls apart after a tragedy, and he must fight for his ideals and their love amidst growing Republican protests. From the author of the bestselling The Cathedral of the Sea, this masterful and engaging novel offers a vivid portrait of Barcelona.
