«Una espía en el reino de Galicia» is the essay by Manuel Rivas, published by Punto de Lectura in hardcover (240 pages, in Spanish).
The book combines journalism and fiction to subvert clichés about Galicia with irony and humor. Its four sections alternate reports from a spy, a story addressed to an alien, and an electronic notebook with notes on the present. Galicia is conceived as a metaphor for the world and a place of continental and transatlantic encounter.
Spanish translation by Dolores Vilavedra Fernández of the Galician original «Unha espía no Reino de Galicia» (2005); edition published in 2006.
A work for readers interested in ironic essays, narrative journalism and Galician culture.
