Los disparos del cazador is a novel by Rafael Chirbes, narrated in the first person by Carlos Císcar, a builder who prospered during the post-war period thanks to shady businesses. The novel reconstructs the narrator's family and social history up to democratic Spain. Carlos, old and retired, tries to reconcile with his past through his notebook, remembering conflicts and adulteries. The work offers a vision of the mentality of the time and place, Madrid in the mid-century, through a game of crossed diaries between the main characters.
