About This Book

Un narrador busca una visión astral y total de un día de guerra, intentando mirar fuera de la geometría y la cronología para abarcar el extenso frente. Ofrece viñetas nocturnas y sensoriales que muestran trincheras embarradas y pestilentes, convoyes de municiones, cohetes y reflectores que iluminan el campo, aviones que arrojan bombas y pueblos arruinados. La prosa alterna descripciones detalladas y momentos oníricos, reflexiona sobre la multiplicidad de relatos que la guerra engendra y admite la imposibilidad de reducir la experiencia colectiva a una sola mirada.

About the Author

Ramón del Valle-Inclán

Ramón del Valle-Inclán was a prominent Spanish playwright, novelist, and poet, known for his innovative contributions to modernist literature. His works often explore themes of identity, culture, and the human condition, employing a unique blend of realism and symbolism. One of his most celebrated plays, "Luces de Bohemia," exemplifies his esperpento style, which distorts reality to reveal deeper truths about society. Valle-Inclán's literary legacy includes notable titles such as "Divinas palabras" and the "Sonata" series, which reflect his mastery of language and character development. His influence on Spanish literature continues to be felt, making him a key figure in the literary heritage of the early 20th century.
