«La isla de los jacintos cortados» is the novel by Gonzalo Torrente Ballester, published by Editorial Planeta in paperback (402 pages, in Spanish).
A blend of reality, fantasy, irony and humour, enriched with eroticism and a serene melancholy. A double love plot intertwines in the narrative, which leads to a reflection on truth and appearance, history and fiction, and the author's relationship with his work. The prose alternates baroque ornamentation with simplicity and adapts to the action.
Third instalment of Torrente Ballester's fantastic trilogy; it won the Premio Nacional de Narrativa in 1981.
For readers of Spanish fiction interested in works that combine history, fantasy and reflections on literature itself.
