«Voces de un día de verano» is the contemporary fiction novel by Irwin Shaw, published by Lectorum Pubns in paperback (186 pages, in Spanish).
The novel reconstructs four decades of American life through the memory of Benjamin Federov, son of Russian Jewish immigrants. Between personal chronicle and social drama, it addresses anti-Jewish prejudice in the United States, with the Sacco and Vanzetti case as a backdrop, and the protagonist's family and romantic relationships.
Work originally published in 1965 as Voices of a Summer Day. Translation by J. Ferrer Aleu; this edition belongs to the Los JET collection from Plaza & Janés.
For readers of American fiction and 20th-century historical fiction, with an interest in social drama and memory.
