The narrative follows Viance, a Spanish soldier trapped in the Moroccan war during the 1921 Annual disaster. Amid hunger, violence and the dehumanization of combat, the novel depicts the absurdity and horror of war from the troops' experience, with prose combining harshness and lyricism.

Work for a general audience interested in twentieth-century Spanish literature and colonial conflicts in Morocco.
