«Las guerras de nuestros antepasados» is the novel and stage version by Miguel Delibes (Círculo de Lectores, hardback, 316 pages, in Spanish).
Over seven nights of conversation, inmate Pacífico Pérez recalls his life before Doctor Burgueño, physician at the prison sanatorium. His father, grandfather and great-grandfather, obsessed with the civil war, the African war and the Carlist war, wanted to make him heir to military glories that Pacífico does not share.
This Círculo de Lectores edition combines the novel with its stage version and includes illustrations by Julián Grau Santos.
