About the Book

Una novela apasionante sobre el amor, el odio, la venganza y las diferencias entre clases sociales, ambientada en los duros años de la posguerra española y ganadora del Premio Azorín. Un joven pastor es acusado de cometer un triple asesinato en el cortijo extremeño donde sus familiares han trabajado como sirvientes durante generaciones. Su única defensa será el testimonio sin fisuras de su anciano abuelo, que revelará una brutal historia de intriga, sometimiento, erotismo y venganza, de la que amos y criados son a la vez testigos y protagonistas. En una época en que la Guerra Civil abrió una brecha insalvable entre vencedores y vencidos, el relato de un viejo alfarero que no se rinde ante la injusticia abrirá heridas aún sin cicatrizar y cuestionará los férreos cimientos morales de la aristocracia rural española. Reseña: «Una novela de amores y odios, escrita con crueldad, ternura y poesía.» Ángel Basanta, El Cultural ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A young shepherd is accused of committing a triple homicide in the farmstead in Extremadura where his family has worked as servants for generations. His only defense is the unshakeable testimony of his elderly grandfather, who reveals a brutal story of intrigue, subjugation, eroticism, and vengeance, in which masters and servants are both witnesses and protagonists. In a time in which the Spanish Civil War shredded the existence of winners and losers, the tale of an old potter who does not give up in the face of injustice will open wounds that have yet to heal and will question the moral foundations of the rural Spanish aristocracy. Awarded with the Azorín Novel Prize in 2000, Clay Skies is a thrilling work, written with the intelligence of one who dominates the difficult art of engrossing the reader in the story. An essential novel for understanding the past of a battered country, which had to rescue itself however it could from its own demons.
