The best literary account of the effect of the Civil War,
By A Customer
This review is from: Requiem Por UN Campesino Espanol (Spanish Edition) (Paperback)
Ramon Sender fuses symbolism and realism in this account of the effect of the Spanish Civil War on a small Aragonese population. He reclaims the image of Christ crucified for the Republican side. This image had been used by Nationalists to symbolise the fate of Spain. It is here won forever for Republican historians as a metaphor for the suffering of ordinary Spanish people. Easy to read in the beautiful Spanish original but excellently translated. You now have good reason to read this book twice!

Underrated author,

This review is from: Requiem Por Un Campesino Espanol/ Requiem for a Spanish Peasant (Destinolibro) (Spanish Edition) (Paperback)
I discovered reading this book one of the greatest Spanish writers. On a recent trip to Madrid I looked for his books, not an easy task, and bought all the ones I could find. Now I look forward to reading them.
