A manifesto in favor of the survival of love and a denunciation of the barbarity of war. With an intimate voice, Ana María Matute confronts us with the experiences of a group of young people, almost children, whom the civil war has stripped of their childhood universe. The setting is a Barcelona of soldiers, refugees, and beggars trying to survive amidst rubble and bombings. Beyond a specific time and space, the author presents young people living with fear and death, delving into the emotions of a girl who, amidst scarcity and uncertainty, will find the true meaning of peace in love.
