Translated from Spanish by Sergio Waisman, professor of Spanish and international affairs, "The Regal Lemon Tree" is one of the late Juan José Saer's most beloved novels. Set during the day and night of New Year's Eve — building up a barbecue that takes on ritual significance — the novel focuses on a couple in the north of Argentina who lost their only son six years prior.
