El viento de la Luna

Synopsis of El viento de la Luna

In the summer of 1969, while the world watches with amazement the arrival of Apollo XI on the Moon, a teenager in the city of Mágina lives a time of change and discovery. The space mission becomes a common thread that intertwines the fragility of everyday moments with the immensity of a future that opens before him. Antonio Muñoz Molina masterfully narrates a coming-of-age story that evokes the nostalgia of childhood and adolescence, and that refers to the universe of writers such as Salinger or Philip Roth. A captivating novel that explores the strangeness of life and the ability of moments to transform it.
