«Las bicicletas son para el verano» is the play by Fernando Fernán-Gómez, published by Austral in paperback (288 pages, in Spanish).
In the summer of 1936, a family in Madrid watches as the Civil War postpones the bicycle that Luisito, held back a year, has asked his father for. The play portrays everyday life in the building, with maid and neighbors, and the conflict's impact on ordinary people, without epic or grandiloquence.
This Austral edition belongs to the Contemporánea collection, in its Teatro series, and includes an introduction by Eduardo Haro Tecglen and a reading guide.
A play commonly read in schools and a classic of Spanish theatre for those interested in the Civil War.
