«El oro de Caramablu» is the novel by Johannes Urzidil, published by Txalaparta, S.L. in paperback (126 pages, in Spanish).
The action takes place in 1936 in a village in the Basque Country, where some extraordinary inhabitants draw the gaze towards damp landscapes, covered in moss and full of a strange magnetism. Caramablú embodies the Basque Country and Basque is its treasure. From a close observation of Basque traditions, Johannes Urzidil, linked to the Prague circle, conveys his affinity for his native Bohemia, a crossroads of routes and invasions where identity always feels threatened.
The novel belongs to the Orreaga collection from Txalaparta. It is the first edition, published in Spain on 9 October 2003.
For readers interested in narrative about the Spanish Civil War and Basque culture.
