«Últimas tardes con Teresa» is the novel by Juan Marsé, published by Debolsillo in paperback (480 pages, in Spanish).
In postwar Barcelona, the story brings together Teresa, a rebellious left-wing university student from a bourgeois family, and Manolo, a Murcian immigrant known as Pijoaparte. Their love affair reflects the social contradictions of the era, the distance between classes, the naivety of easy commitment and the bitterness of the losers.
It was originally published in 1966, won the Biblioteca Breve Prize and belongs to the Contemporánea collection; the cover mentions the author's Cervantes Prize.
For readers of Spanish fiction and twentieth-century classics interested in a story set in postwar Barcelona.
Juan Marsé Carbó was a Spanish novelist, journalist, and screenwriter who used Spanish as his literary language. In 2008, he was awarded the Cervantes Prize, "the Spanish-language equivalent" to the Nobel Prize in Literature.
