Donde duermen los cerezos

by Pedro Gala Zapatero

Hay lugares donde pasamos.
Y hay lugares donde algo de nosotros decide quedarse.
Los treinta relatos que componen Donde duermen los cerezos recorren esos territorios invisibles donde se construye una vida: la memoria de la infancia, los paisajes que nos transforman, las despedidas que no esperábamos, los encuentros que llegan cuando menos los buscamos.
Cada historia es una pequeña estación en el viaje de una existencia. Casas, ciudades, trenes, conversaciones y silencios se convierten en escenarios donde la emoción y la memoria trazan su propio mapa. Un mapa hecho de lugares, pero también de sentimientos.
Porque, al final, todos buscamos lo mismo: un lugar donde quedarnos a vivir.

About the author

Pedro Gala is a Spanish writer, engineer, and lifelong reader who believes that stories are one of the most powerful ways to understand the world and ourselves.

After a long career in the technology industry, he turned his attention to writing, combining a deep curiosity about people with a love of books, travel, and everyday conversations. His fiction often explores memory, kindness, resilience, and the quiet moments that shape ordinary lives.

Pedro enjoys writing cozy mysteries, literary fiction, and travel-inspired stories, creating characters whose greatest adventures often begin with a simple human encounter. Bookshops, trains, cafés, and small towns frequently become the backdrop for his narratives.

He is the author of Where Cherry Trees Sleep and writes regularly about books, writing, and the joy of reading through his newsletter, Peter’s Stories.

When he is not writing, he can usually be found browsing second-hand bookshops, travelling by train, practising photography, or searching for the perfect place to enjoy a good coffee with a great novel.
