«Los pasos contados. Memorias I» is the first volume of the memoirs of Fernando Vizcaíno Casas (Planeta, paperback, 282 pages).
In this first volume of the memoirs of Fernando Vizcaíno Casas, the author combines memories of his personal surroundings with a chronicle of Spain in the 1930s and 1940s. With the writer's celebrated critical humor, he slips in anecdotes and events and reviews periods such as the Second Republic, the Civil War and Francoism from the viewpoint of a direct witness.
The complete memoirs consist of three volumes; this first one appeared in 2000 in the Biblioteca F. Vizcaíno Casas collection.
Conceived as the testimony of a generation, it may appeal both to those who lived through postwar Spain and to younger readers who want to discover that period.
Fernando Vizcaíno Casas (1926–2003) was a Spanish labour lawyer, journalist and writer. His writings were generally supportive of Francoist Spain. During the 1970s and 1980s he collaborated with the director Rafael Gil on a number of films that supported this point of view. He wrote ...Y al tercer año, resucitó, Niñas… ¡al salón!, De "camisa vieja" a chaqueta nueva, 1975/El año en que Franco murió en la cama, and Viva Franco, con perdón, between others.
