Two young Catalan pianists, Luis and Alberto, meet in Paris during the Popular Front; the Spanish Civil War breaks their friendship. Forty years later they meet again in a nocturnal Barcelona: Luis is a celebrated composer and Alberto plays in cabarets. Between the two, the novel explores friendship, success, failure and the mark of history.

For readers of contemporary fiction interested in friendship, music and the impact of history on individual lives.
Manuel Vázquez Montalbán was a prolific Spanish writer from Barcelona: journalist, novelist, poet, essayist, anthologue, prologist, humorist, critic and political prisoner as well as a gastronome and an FC Barcelona supporter.
