Pretérito imperfecto is the first installment of the autobiography of psychiatrist Carlos Castilla del Pino, winner of the IX Comillas Prize in 1996. In this book, Castilla del Pino narrates his life from his childhood in a small Andalusian town to his work as a doctor in Madrid in the 1940s. The author recounts his experiences in the gloomy Salesian school of Ronda, the creation of his own laboratory, the capture of his town during the Civil War, his exile to Gibraltar, and his entry into the Faculty of Medicine in Madrid. An autobiographical work that offers a truthful and shocking testimony of the history of Spain.
