«Mortal y rosa» is the novel by Francisco Umbral, in hardcover (158 pages, in Spanish).
Umbral constructs a long monologue around the death of his son, an elegy of childhood where loss becomes a cathartic force. Through poetic prose, the author interweaves memory, joy and pain to reflect on the transience of happiness, the beauty of everyday moments and the fragility of existence.
With a prologue by Félix Grande, it belongs to the collection Las 100 joyas del milenio, no. 52. The work was originally published in 1975.
Reading for those interested in twentieth-century Spanish literature and in lyrical narrative of an autobiographical nature.
Francisco Alejandro Pérez Martínez, better known as Francisco Umbral, was a Spanish journalist, novelist, biographer and essayist.
