Ian Gibson brings us closer to the story of Antonio Machado's inner turmoil, from his flight across the border with his mother to his death in the exile of Collioure. A moving account of the final moments of one of the most admired Spanish intellectuals, exploring his struggle for the Republic and his eternal longing for his childhood and the sun of Seville. This work delves into the figure of the elegiac poet, whose life was marked by the metaphor of the path and loss. Through rigorous research, the author reconstructs the end of a man who, even in his darkest days, preserved the memory of light and poetry, leaving behind unforgettable verses found in his own coat.
