Some complete stories - Domingo Villar

September 8

Illustrated with linocuts by Carlos Baonza, Domingo Villar leaves aside, for the moment, his novels about the Inspector Leo Caldas and presents us with this selection of stories. I was lucky enough to hear one of them in the last meeting with Domingo that I was able to attend and I remember how all of us who were there found it great and we strongly asked him to publish them. So the Vigo writer has taken them out of the most personal sphere in which he had them and brought them together in this work.
