«Anatomía de un instante» is the historical essay by Javier Cercas, published by DEBOLSILLO in paperback (464 pages, in Spanish).
An essay in the form of a chronicle that reconstructs 23F: the moment when Adolfo Suárez remained seated in Congress while the coup plotters fired, while the rest of the deputies took refuge under the benches. From that gesture, Cercas analyses the Transition, the coup d'état and the decisive years of Spain's recent history, combining the pace of a crime novel with the tension of a horror one.
It belongs to the Contemporánea collection from DEBOLSILLO. The work received the National Narrative Prize and was recognised as book of the year by Babelia and non-fiction book of the year by El Cultural.
For readers interested in the contemporary history of Spain, the Transition and the 23F coup, as well as for those who follow the work of Javier Cercas.
Spanish novelist and essayist, author of Soldiers of Salamis, The Anatomy of a Moment and the Terra Alta trilogy.
