«Memoria estremecida» is a contemporary fiction novel by Jesús Moncada, published by Editorial Anagrama in hardcover (352 pages, in Spanish).
The reconstruction of tragic events that took place in Mequinenza in 1877, distorted by oral tradition, takes shape when the manuscript of a court clerk from Caspe appears; the project of turning them into a novel stirs up misgivings and confidences that keep the old memory alive.
Volume 271 of the Narrativas hispánicas collection. Originally published as Estremida memòria and winner of the Premi Joan Crexells and the Premi Crítica Serra d'Or.
For readers of literary fiction interested in historical memory and the reconstruction of the past.
Jesús Moncada i Estruga was a narrator and translator. His work is a re-creation, somewhere between realism and fantasy, of the mythical past of the old town of Mequinenza -now submerged beneath the waters of the river Ebro-.
