«Un hipster en la España vacía» is the humorous novel by Daniel Gascón, published by Random House in paperback (160 pages, in Spanish).
Enrique, a city hipster, settles in La Cañada, a village in Teruel, to escape the urban pace, set up a collaborative garden and forget his ex-girlfriend. His habits, such as morning yoga or looking for quinoa in the shop, clash with rural life and turn him into a kind of modern Quixote. To everyone's surprise, he finds his place, falls in love and ends up as mayor, in a plot of adventures that ironically portrays neighbourhood conflicts, the filming of a film about the Civil War or cultural appropriation.
The work is a parody of present-day Spain and an ironic portrait of the clash between urban sensibility and rural vision, as the editorial description notes.
Aimed at readers who enjoy social satire and stories about empty Spain and the contrast between urban and rural.
