«De la alpargata al seiscientos» is the novel by Juan Eslava Galán, published by Editorial Planeta in hardback (456 pages, in Spanish).
Set in 1950s Spain, the work weaves together testimonies and anecdotes to portray popular culture under Francoism: the arrival of television, the refrigerator or the Seat 600 coexists with censorship, dissolute lives and a country emerging from the postwar period. The comic tone is maintained even in a harsh environment.
It is the third instalment of the trilogy formed by Una historia de la guerra civil que no va a gustar a nadie and Los años del miedo.
For readers interested in the social history and popular culture of Francoist Spain.
