«El alma de la ciudad» is the historical novel by Jesús Sánchez Adalid, published by Harper Bolsillo in paperback (688 pages, in Spanish).
In the Middle Ages, four pilgrims travel together along the Camino de Santiago. Blasco Jiménez, one of them, recalls his humble childhood, his guardianship by the cleric don Bricio, and his participation in the founding of Plasencia. The novel contrasts duty and freedom, with the homo viator as a symbol.

Recommended by the Spanish Federation of Associations of Friends of the Camino de Santiago; for readers of historical and adventure novels.
