Haven'y read more siple, yet simply beautiful day-to-day life story since "The Club of thre Incorrigible Optimists". To me this book was simply perfect.
#Readaroundtheworld #Spain Published when the author was 23, this coming of age story turns around a family damaged by the Spanish civil war. Their dysfunction and descent into violence, manipulation, penury and gnawing hunger reflects the fracture of all of Spain at that time.
