At the age of fifty-two, Dvora Treisman took her big orange cat and flew from the San Francisco Bay Area to a new life in Barcelona. She had gone salsa dancing, met and married a Catalan, and they were going to live in his hometown.The adventures begin before she even leaves, with the sight-unseen cash purchase of an apartment in the Gothic Quarter, only to find out later what that street is like at night. Drunks who whistle Verdi and pee on the street, furniture that won’t fit through the doors, trying to buy a laxative at the pharmacy when you don’t speak the language, and shopping for groceries at the emblematic Boqueria market are her daily reality. Adventures and challenges continue when things don’t work out as planned, especially after she is divorced and left alone.In stories and vignettes she deftly explains much about her new home: Templar Knights at Miravet, the Roman aqueduct in Tarragona, the caganer (shitter) who squats in Catalan nativity scenes, the exhumation of Salvador Dalí, and a murder in the town cemetery on All Saints.If you’ve ever dreamed of moving abroad, you might be inspired by this honest and engaging memoir of an expatriate who found a new home in the old world.

She just did what she felt she needed to do and when things got tough, she simply had to overcome them.Treisman has lived in Catalonia for over twenty years, has many appealing stories to tell, and tells them with intelligence and wit.
