Description

CAMILO JOSÉ CELA (1916-2002) was a Spanish novelist, short story writer and essayist associated with the Generation of '36 movement. He was awarded the 1989 Nobel Prize in Literature "for a rich and intensive prose, which with restrained compassion forms a challenging vision of man's vulnerability."

His first novel, THE FAMILY OF PASCUAL DUARTE (1942), was deemed too violent and crude for the Spain of the 1940s, which was in the early stages of General Franco's long dictatorship, and in less than a year it was banned. It contains themes of extreme realism and existentialism in which the characters live on the margins of society and their lives are submersed in anguish and pain. The protagonist, Pascual Duarte, has trouble finding validity in conventional morality and commits a number of crimes, including murders, for which he feels nothing. The novel is now often cited as having breathed new life into Spanish literature in the years immediately following the bloody 1936-39 civil war.

THE HIVE (1950), also banned for many years by the Franco regime, presents a panoramic view of the degredation and suffering of the lower-middle class in post-Civil War Spain. Cela's typical style -- a sarcastic, often grotesque, form of realism -- is exemplified here. Readers are introduced to more than 300 characters through a series of starkly rendered interlocking vignettes, transforming this book from a social document into a towering work of inventive fiction. Filled with violence, hunger, and compassion, the novel captures the ambitions and constraints of life under a dictatorship.

JOURNEY TO THE ALCARRIA (1948) is the best known of the "vagabundajes", Cela's term for his books of travels, in which he wanders from village to village, through farms and along country roads in the mountainous region northeast of Madrid, in search of the Spanish character. It has been described as "the most celebrated Spanish travelogue of all times."

Finally, this collection includes Cela's Nobel Prize acceptance speech and a 1996 interview with Paris Review.
