«El Griffón» is the contemporary fiction novel by Spanish writer Alfredo Conde, published by Alfaguara in paperback (258 pages, in Spanish).
The narrative alternates between two periods: Galicia in the 16th century, where an inquisitorial visitor becomes involved in a story of love and mystery, and the present, with a professor investigating the figure of the griffón. The work interweaves both plots to address freedom, Galician identity, and the weight of the past.
Original title: «Xa vai o griffon no vento»; translated into Spanish by the author himself. The edition belongs to the Alfaguara nueva ficción collection, and the work won the Premio Nacional de Narrativa.
For readers of 20th-century Spanish fiction who enjoy dual-period plots, Galician settings, and historical depth.
Alfredo Conde Cid is a Galician writer and politician, who has published in both Galician and Spanish.
