«Hautsi da katea: Sara izan zen lekuko» is the historical novel by Toti Martínez de Lezea, published by Erein Argitaletxea in paperback (304 pages, in Basque).
During the French Revolution, the continental Basque Country sees its institutions and fueros suppressed; Joantto Ithurbide, son of a family from Jaurene, seeks his roots and revenge amid the chaos. Mari Harotsenne, the procurator Jean-Martin Monduteguy and the former shepherd-smuggler Gartzia complete the tableau of a community marked by deportation and disillusionment.
Originally published in 2004, it is volume 54 of the Narratiba collection. Translated into Basque by Elena Touyarou; the Spanish original is titled «La cadena rota».
Recommended for readers of historical fiction and Basque literature, interested in the French Revolution and its consequences in the Basque Country.
