«Diario de un jubilado» is the novel by Miguel Delibes, published by Destino in paperback (264 pages, in Spanish).
The work follows a man who has just stopped working and decides to pour his daily life into a notebook. Through that routine full of small gestures, walks and memories, the protagonist faces solitude, the awareness of time and the search for a new meaning in old age, always with Delibes's ironic and humane gaze.
The novel belongs to the Áncora y Delfín collection from Ediciones Destino.
A read for those who enjoy contemporary Spanish narrative and the portraits of everyday life that characterise Miguel Delibes.
