«Anatomía de un instante» is the essay in chronicle form by Javier Cercas, published by Círculo de Lectores in paperback (457 pages, in Spanish).
The work starts from the gesture of Adolfo Suárez, who remained seated on 23-F while bullets whizzed through the Congress and deputies took refuge under their seats. Cercas adds Gutiérrez Mellado and Santiago Carrillo and reconstructs without fiction the coup and the preceding years, turning that instant into a window onto the Spanish Transition.
Published in 2009. National Narrative Prize in 2010 and Mondello Prize in 2011. Círculo de Lectores edition in paperback, in Spanish, 457 pages.
Work of interest for readers of recent Spanish history and narrative non-fiction.
