«Réquiem por un campesino español / El bandido adolescente» is a volume by Ramón J. Sender bringing together two novels, published by RBA in paperback (231 pages, in Spanish).
The volume brings together two short novels by Ramón J. Sender. «Réquiem por un campesino español» reconstructs, through the memories of a priest waiting to say Mass, a dramatic episode of the Spanish Civil War in an Aragonese village. «El bandido adolescente» tells the story of William H. Boney, alias Billy the Kid, a young gunslinger of the Wild West who died at twenty-two. Both address violence and injustice.
The two narratives belong to the Narrativa actual collection, number 63, from RBA Editores.
Recommended for readers interested in twentieth-century Spanish literature and historical fiction about the Spanish Civil War.
