«El año de la desgracia» is a true crime chronicle by Javier Pardo, published by Caligrama in paperback (414 pages, in Spanish).
In 1950, in a small town, a neighbour is murdered and his sister disappears; fear takes hold. Two and a half years later, a second corpse leads to the accusation of three locals; the court acquits them, but upon their return a popular riot banishes them forever. The work reconstructs the real case and the manipulation through fear.
Winner of the Caligrama-Promesa Award; first edition with flaps, published on 22 February 2021.
For readers of true crime and real cases of mass manipulation.
