“You were ‘my prima estate’, my first summer, because this was my life and it finally had meaning when I was in your arms.”
Upon hearing of Raphael’s death, Tanya, a young Moroccan woman, gradually remembers what he meant to her back in 1987–1988: a time of simple pleasures, living amid eccentric friends and conventional family, to the soundtrack of her youth, she reminisces about her first love and how hard it was to express these new feelings.
In her first novel, HANAE TOUATI revels in painting holidays in the sun, lifes of another times, another worlds, already long gone, already forgotten, a time that comes alive through the pages and makes you want to tread the beach in the ‘80s.
With her background in literature, she decided to tell a family story through three generations of women.
THE FIRST SUMMER 1 (La Prima Estate 1) is the first volume of a great family saga.
