En 'Adiós, luz de veranos', Jorge Semprún rememora sus años de infancia y juventud, marcados por el exilio y la guerra civil española. Desde sus recuerdos de los veranos en Santander y Lekeitio hasta su internado en París, Semprún explora la forja de sus convicciones políticas y filosóficas, así como su encuentro con la izquierda francesa y el descubrimiento de la sexualidad. Una emotiva narración sobre la construcción de un intelectual europeo en tiempos de convulsión.

Jorge Semprún Maura was a Spanish writer and politician who lived in France most of his life and wrote primarily in French. From 1953 to 1962, during the dictatorship of Francisco Franco, Semprún lived clandestinely in Spain working as an organizer for the exiled Communist Party of Spain, but was expelled from the party in 1964. After the death of Franco and the change to a democratic government, he served as Minister of Culture in Spain's socialist government from 1988 to 1991.
