«El Jarama» is the realist novel by Spanish writer Rafael Sánchez Ferlosio, published by RBA Editores in paperback (382 pages, in Spanish).
A group of friends from Madrid decides to spend a hot August Sunday on the banks of the Jarama river. The action is divided between Mauricio's tavern and a grove by the water; over sixteen hours, the characters swim, share paellas and card games, and engage in flirtations, with Monday looming. As evening falls, an unforeseen event changes the course of the outing.
