«El manuscrito de Omnium Sanctorum» is the historical novel by Juan Rey, published by Algaida Editores in hardcover (412 pages, in Spanish).
Seville, July 18, 1936: as the city is shaken by a military uprising, a hotel waiter, a trade unionist, a girl from a slum, a young man with no trade and an old typesetter converge in a hospice turned into an anarchist headquarters. Unknowingly, with every gesture and every word they bring to life the characters of an ancient manuscript who, almost three centuries later, reappear in the same neighborhood to repeat the same tragedy, intertwining past and present.
The novel was a finalist for the XXXVI Ateneo de Sevilla Novel Prize. It belongs to the Algaida Literaria collection.
Recommended for readers of historical fiction set during the Spanish Civil War and for those seeking stories with a story-within-a-story structure.
