The work brings together nine stories written between 1936 and 1937 that portray episodes of the Spanish Civil War that the author, editor of the newspaper Ahora, witnessed first-hand in republican Madrid. Each story is based on a true event and shows the war from a perspective of compassion for the specific people who suffer it, with a view that does not align with any side.
The volume belongs to the Libros del Asteroide collection (number 81). It includes an introduction by María Isabel Cintas. Spanish edition originally published in 2011.
Recommended for readers interested in the Spanish Civil War, short fiction and literary journalism of the first half of the twentieth century.
