«Polaroid» by Suso de Toro is a collection of stories that marked a milestone in modern Galician literature, signaling a significant narrative shift. This book is presented as a machine of meanings in multiple directions, addressing contemporary themes such as memory and the country's relationship with its past. Through a critical and often mocking gaze, the author explores the rupture between the city and the countryside, and the forgetting of the past in the present. Considered a classic of Galician literature, «Polaroid» connects with the underground culture of the seventies and pop culture, offering a reflection on industrial production and audiovisual media.
