«Gran Sol» is Ignacio Aldecoa's social novel, published by Noguer in paperback (242 pages, in Spanish).
The action takes place in the North Atlantic, aboard the cod fishing boats that work its waters. Aldecoa describes the harsh working conditions of the sailors, the solidarity among the men, and the daily struggle for survival in a hostile environment. All of this is set within the social realism of the Spanish postwar period.
Originally published in 1957, the novel won the Premio de la Crítica de Narrativa Castellana in 1958. This edition of Gran Sol belongs to Noguer's Galería Literaria collection.
For readers of postwar Spanish social fiction and for those interested in stories about the sea and the lives of fishermen.
José Ignacio Aldecoa e Isasi was a Spanish writer. He was the nephew of the painter Adrián Aldecoa.
