«Un día de cólera» is the historical novel by Arturo Pérez-Reverte, published by Círculo de Lectores in hardback (351 pages, in Spanish).
The novel reconstructs the popular uprising of 2 May 1808 in Madrid against the Napoleonic occupation. Without a single protagonist, it offers a choral vision of the riot, with heroes and cowards, anonymous people and real historical figures. Pérez-Reverte documents authentic places, events and words to bring back to life those who only appeared in archives and engravings.
Published in 2008, it is part of the Biblioteca Arturo Pérez-Reverte collection.
For readers interested in the history of Spain and the Peninsular War.
Spanish journalist, former war reporter and novelist, author of the Captain Alatriste saga and novels such as The Flanders Panel and The Club Dumas.
