Juan Eduardo Zúñiga · 2003 CE · Short Story · Spanish · Contemporary

Linked stories of ordinary people in Madrid under siege, 1936 to 1939, caught among shelling, hunger and divided loyalties. They are told with restraint and without commentary. The closing volume of the trilogy Zúñiga began with Largo noviembre de Madrid, which is not held.
