Between 1945 and 1946 the famous hearings of the Nuremberg trials were held. The recent atrocity of Nazism required that immediate action that lasted for many months and that served as a kind of universal jurisprudence for the harshest consideration of war crimes; ...
Elia Barceló's versatility makes a retrospective of her work a complete bibliographic reference. Under the same authorship, we find a diversity of proposals that show a brilliant capacity. From its beginnings in science fiction to its transitions between historical fiction, the ...
Sometimes the dissemination intention is shipwrecked. It may be due to a masochistic taste for deaf ears to what the receiver of any message dislikes. Or perhaps it is something of that strange and delusional interested bias that turns the world into what our terminals transmit to us knowing our ...
With his previous novel "It seems a lie" with autobiographical overtones (but completely limited to his life), Juan del Val aroused a stir and also blisters in very different sectors, far beyond the strictly literary. But that is another matter of course about whose extremes it has already been revealed enough in ...
A feature debut like this one by Manuel de Lorenzo always has something of a singular emptiness in the full satisfaction of its creator. Because at the launch of that novel that has emerged as a first approach to that unfathomable job of the writer, the reasons for writing appear at ...
The plethora of great French narrators of the noir genre (combined with suspense), led by Minier or Thilliez, is now joined, by overwhelming popular fondness, by Sandrine Destombes. A new writer to take into account in that irrepressible effervescence of the Gallic noir. And to show this button. The novel about ...
The discovery of Víctor del Árbol represented, in my opinion, a new variant in the crime novel. Stories, cases that connect with the deepest feelings about the tragic of living from the notion of crime, of the transience of life, in the hands of the murderer on duty, also converted ...
Can prehistory be part of the historical novel genre? Beyond the fictions oriented to the fantastic, the time of the proto-men is plunged into cabal from the small glimpses that science can offer on that distant anthropology of the days of the caves. The question is ...
The figure of the writer is the paradigm of everything, of everything narrated, of all the protagonists in front of the mirror in which they find the writer, undoing his existence in front of that God once endowed with a pen, then with his unnerving noise of keys and later just by sliding your ...
I do not know when Tarantino and Camilla Lackberg agreed for the writer to consider this sequel to the movie "Kill Bill" by the always surprising American director. Or at least, qualifying the previous exaggeration, that can come off the idea of the fiercest protagonist in search of revenge ...
That erotic literature lives a second youth is evident. The question would be to elucidate if at some point it has not been the case. Because the stories of falling in love, of intense closeness, have that gift of eternal youth, of reviving passions and drives that seem to fall asleep with the passage of ...
There is perhaps no better setting for a psychological thriller than melancholic Lisbon. And the academic of the language Antonio Muñoz Molina already knew it since he wrote that other story "Winter in Lisbon." And it is that in that city overlooking the immensity of the Atlantic, between ...
