«La trastienda azul» is the historical novel by Fernando Palazuelos, published in 1998 by Lengua de Trapo in paperback (256 pages, in Spanish).
Set in Paris in the second half of the nineteenth century, the novel reconstructs the life of Julien Tanguy, a paint dealer who from his Montmartre shop supported artists such as Van Gogh, Gauguin and Cézanne, providing them with materials and exhibiting works that academic circles rejected. The work combines letters and intimate memories.
The work belongs to the Nueva Biblioteca collection, number 27, and won the ninth Torrente Ballester Narrative Prize and the Ciudad de La Laguna Novel Prize.
The work is for readers of historical fiction and novels based on real art figures, with an interest in nineteenth-century Paris.
