«Una letra femenina azul pálido» is the novel by Franz Werfel, published by Editorial Anagrama in paperback (144 pages, in Spanish).
Vienna, 1936. A senior official married to a wealthy lady recognizes in a letter the handwriting of a buried love. The missive asks for help to transfer an eighteen-year-old German youth to a Viennese school, and makes him suspect that he might be an unrecognized son. Werfel combines psychological analysis and social criticism to portray a man emptied of everything authentic by conventions.
It belongs to Anagrama's Compactos collection (no. 176). Translation by Juan José del Solar; original text in German.
Franz Viktor Werfel was a Czech novelist, playwright, and poet whose career spanned World War I, the Interwar period, and World War II.
