«La partida» is a collection of short stories by Miguel Delibes, published by Alianza and Club Internacional del Libro in paperback (155 pages, in Spanish).
The volume brings together ten stories. The title story follows a young man who joins a merchant ship, a starting point that Delibes uses to evoke his experiences in the Navy during the Civil War aboard the cruiser Canarias, an experience he would return to years later in his novel «Madera de héroe».
It is part of the Biblioteca Fundamental de Nuestro Tiempo collection, number 21, Literature section.
