In 'La hora de Quevedo', Baltasar Magro immerses us in the Spain of the Golden Age through the figure of Don Francisco de Quevedo. Exhausted and feeling his end near, Quevedo retires to his manor, the Torre de Juan Abad, where he writes a long epistle to his nephew Don Pedro de Alderete. In this letter, he reviews his life, marked by palace intrigues, the decadence of the court of Philip IV, and the machinations of the Count-Duke of Olivares, his enemy. This historical novel offers us a vision of the life and times of one of the most important figures in Spanish literature.
