Serenade Junction — John Gabriel

On the night he arrives at a small town in the interior of the state, a young successful stock investor from the capital meets a girl at a crossroads by chance. Serenade Junction is a novel about the search for the love that doesn't hurt. With awesome atmosphere, remarkable pace and a writing visually outstanding it shows young people during the summer holidays, in a setting of bars, squares, the local club, dirt roads and big coffee farms. And their emotional tie with the place where they were born and grew up. A feeling of nostalgia is about it as it is implicit they will have to leave it in a future not so far ahead. John Gabriel's style builds precious moments out of what seem simple situations, making you feel that the things that really matter in this world are more at hand than you imagine.
