Anatomia de Un Instante / Anatomy of an Instant
Javier Cercas
Este libro es un ensayo en forma de cronica o una cronica en forma de ensayo. Este libro no es una ficcion. Este libro es la anatomia de un instante: el instante en que Adolfo Suarez permanecio sentado en la tarde del 23 de febrero de 1981, mientras las balas de los golpistas zumbaban a su alrededor en el hemiciclo del Congreso de los Diputados y todos los demas parlamentarios -todos menos dos: el general Gutierrez Mellado y Santiago Carrillo- buscaban refugio bajo sus escanos. Este libro es la cronica de ese gesto y la cronica de un golpe de estado y la cronica de unos anos decisivos en la historia de Espana. Este libro es un libro inclasificable. Un libro unico. Javier Cercas ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A vibrant, tense, and detailed tale that starts off reading like a crime novel and ends up like a work of terror. This book is an essay in the form of a chronicle, or a chronicle in the form of an essay. This book is the anatomy of an instant: the instant in which Adolfo Suarez stayed seated on the afternoon of February 23, 1981, while the bullets of the coup whizzed around him on the floor of the House of Representatives and all the other members of Parliament–all except two: General Gutierrez Mellado and Santiago Carrillo–sought refuge under their seats. This book is the account of a coup d'etat and the report of some decisive years in the history of Spain. This book is an unclassifiable book. A unique book. –Javier Cercas
