«Ejército enemigo» is the novel by Alberto Olmos, published by Random House in paperback (288 pages, in Spanish).
Santiago, a fading advertising man living in a deprived neighborhood, cynically observes the activism of his upper-class friends. After one of them dies, an unexpected inheritance leads him to discover his friend's hidden side: a social commitment that crossed a line of no return. The novel addresses the irrelevance of political discourse, the confusion between social action and media impact, and the unease of a society that has lost its enemy.
A Literature and Fiction book originally published in 2011, with 288 pages.
Recommended for readers of contemporary Spanish fiction interested in activism, social movements and political critique.
