«Campo del Moro» is the historical novel by Max Aub, published by Planeta in hardcover (261 pages, in Spanish).
The Madrid of the last days of the Civil War is on the verge of surrender, but the population tries to sustain a daily routine under the bombs. Aub turns that daily resistance, along with the doubts and contradictions of those who still believe in a dignified way out, into a metaphor for despair and the fate of lost ideals.
Fifth installment of Max Aub's saga «El laberinto mágico», originally published in 1963. This edition belongs to the collection «Nuestros Clásicos Contemporáneos».
For readers interested in the literature of the Republican exile and in Max Aub's narrative production.
Max Aub Mohrenwitz was a Mexican-Spanish experimentalist novelist, playwright, poet, and literary critic. In 1965 he founded the literary periodical Los Sesenta, with editors that included the poets Jorge Guillén and Rafael Alberti.
