Details

The epic of costumbrismo narrated from a very personal world that transcends reality. Human relationships taken to the extreme of words. The passing of time that places and dislocates everyone. David Uclés develops a powerful narrative that sinks its roots in magical realism, deconstructing all reality and all supposed truth. Gabriel García Márquez, Günter Grass, Jaroslav Hasek are just some of the literary bearings on which he now treads with force. A world of his own to give a new vision of the Spanish Civil War that overcomes the clichés of good guys and bad guys, as well as to relate the vital and affective relationship between two men.

Uclés will talk about his work with Montserrat Domínguez, a journalist with a great background who, among other positions, has been director of Contents at Cadena Ser, deputy director of El País and head of El País Semanal, and director of the digital newspaper Huffpost.

At the end of the event, the author will sign copies of his books.
