About this book
"A deeply personal testament, Altarriba{u2019}s account of what led his father to commit suicide at the age of ninety is a detective novel of sorts, one that traces his father{u2019}s life from an impoverished childhood in Aragon, to service with Franco{u2019}s army in the Civil war, escape to join the anarchist FAI, exile in France when the Republicans are defeated, to return to Spain in 1949 and the stultifying existence to which Republican sympathisers were consigned under Francoism"--Random House.
