Two occupied buildings: one the former headquarters of the NO-DO (a
Francoist propaganda outlet) that has been taken over by a small
group of fascists, the other the ruins of some abandoned film
studios that have been converted into the barracks of a
Marxist-Leninist cell. Drifting between these two spaces are
Santiago and Ramiro; two characters who, although finding solace in
two polarised political groups, cross paths and change each
other’s lives. Discursive and devastating, Duval’s first novel
is imbued with the same traits as the era she portrays. A sad,
passionate, and all too real portrait of an ever more divided
world, Duval’s story, in her powerful, shocking, yet considered
prose, reminds us of the uncomfortable, but somewhat comforting
similarities we may find with the “enemy”.
