A Late Sabbatical 

 

For the first time in ten years 2015 came without a literary session in the sala at Los Parronales. Gordon and myself were reduced to games of Scrabble and watching cats play.

  

 

Now, due to the rising cost of airfares and the rapidly changing nature of El Noviciado
from rural village to industrial estate, the 2016 Season is still to be determined.

Our retreats have been wonderful; inspiring and life-changing for all involved.
We hope to keep in touch with the many participants and friends we’ve made and
the writers and poets who took Los Parronales, El Noviciado and Pablo Neruda
away with them in the brilliant words they wrote.
