Description

The buzzing life of bars, warm evenings by the Manzanares river, the subterranean terrors of the Metro, student days in the sixties, the ruthless underworld of the city's mafia - this captivating anthology reflects the kaleidoscopic character of Madrid. Renowned writers such as Galdos and Marias appear alongside others who will be less familiar.
