In 'Cuando las horas veloces', Carlos Barral culminates an ambitious autobiographical project, offering a deep and literary look at the sixties and seventies in Spain. This memoir not only narrates the cultural life of the country, but also the personal and intimate trajectory of the author. Through his reflections, the reader is immersed in literary congresses, meetings with editors and writers, travels through Europe and America, and debates that marked an era. Barral addresses topics such as friendship, betrayal, success and failure, as well as the difficult task of aging, all with a poetic and reflective prose.
