Set in the Asturian spa of Las Caldas during the years leading up to the Spanish Civil War, this novel tells an intense story of love and death marked by social inequalities. The plot follows Martín, a young shepherd who becomes involved in the 1934 Asturian Revolution, a conflict that will irrevocably change his destiny and that of those around him. Considered a masterpiece of contemporary Spanish literature, this choral novel stands out for its social realism and its ability to portray human precariousness. The work was successfully adapted into a television series directed by Vicente Aranda, establishing itself as an essential classic of 20th-century narrative.
Jesús Fernández Santos was a Spanish novelist, short story writer, film critic, film director and documentarist.
