 Me parece más sólido, y constante en su atractivo, página tras página, "La velocidad de la luz".

Aquí, formalmente al menos, la segunda parte se excede en detalles y aburre un poquitín.

Pero la tercera es genial y el final, como siempre en Cercas, recoge el libro entero y explota en un torbellino que desdibuja las fronteras entre realidad y literatura, vida y escritura.

La manera en que Cercas reemplaza la Historia por una historia y, sin embargo, consigue darnos con su "relato real" una visión más dura y verídica y sugerente que la de un recuento de hechos, es, por un lado, sui generis, y por otro, una oda al valor de la literatura como gran mentira que nos dice la verdad de nosotros mismos. En este caso, la de miles de soldados españoles republicanos que nadie recuerda y a los que nadie les agradece su lucha. Un gran libro.

 Just at the beginning of the book but the journalist third person point of view seems to be interesting.Nevertheless, maybe too much war for me just after "Les infants de la liberté".

 Uno de los libros mas emotivos y entretenidos de la nueva literatura castellana de los ultimos tiempos. Javier Cercas fue amigo personal de Roberto Bolaño (a quien admiraba), que ademas incluye en esta novela como uno de sus personajes casuales.
