The Lost Revolutions

The novel, a letter to his daughter Silvia, recalls the year in which the protagonist lived in Toulouse, the course 1967-68, where he had ended up with the excuse of learning French but with the hidden will to make contact with Republican exiles of his native island, to be able to redo the great debacle that occurred in the summer of 1936.

The search for exiles, the power of family memories, the studies on Sartre and existentialism, the days of May lived in Paris and the awakening to the sexuality of the young protagonist are mixed with the impressions of the narrator when, already mature, values the failure of the two revolutionary adventures.

On the island of Pregonda, an imaginary space reminiscent of Menorca, a progressive magistrate, son and grandson of monarchical and Catholic notaries, reviews the two revolutions that marked his life and that of his family.
