«Los topos» is the historical research work by Jesús Torbado and Manuel Leguineche, published in hardback (481 pages, in Spanish).
After the Civil War, many Republicans who could not go into exile became topos: they lived hidden for years for fear of repression. The book brings together eight years of research and testimonies from the protagonists: their captivity, the lives of their families and their emergence into the light after the amnesty of the late sixties.
Published in 1978, the work falls within the categories of History and Literature & Fiction; the cover is by Salinas Yuste.
Recommended for readers interested in the contemporary history of Spain, the Civil War, the postwar period and historical memory.
