«Intemperie» is the literary novel by Jesús Carrasco, published by Seix Barral in paperback (224 pages, in Spanish).
A boy flees his home and crosses a dry, hostile plain to escape those who pursue him. On the way he meets an old goatherd, and together they struggle to survive in a land ravaged by drought and violence. With archetypes such as the boy, the goatherd and the bailiff, Jesús Carrasco builds a harsh tale of strong lyricism.
The novel was published in 2013 in the Biblioteca Breve collection and was adapted into a movie by Benito Zambrano.
A read for those seeking contemporary Spanish fiction with lyrical intensity and a moral backdrop about survival.
