They sent him to Lebanon as a soldier.
He came back carrying a story no uniform could explain.
At nineteen, Miguel crossed the Blue Line as part of a United Nations mission in Lebanon. He expected patrols, discipline and duty. What he found was something far more difficult to understand: children begging for water, civilians trapped between flags, moments of fragile beauty in the middle of fear, and the quiet burden of trying to remain human in a place where suffering had become ordinary.
Behind the Blue Line is not a conventional war memoir. It is the raw and deeply personal testimony of a young Spanish soldier discovering that the hardest battles are not always fought with weapons. Some are fought in silence, in memory, and in the fragile space between duty and conscience.
Honest, cinematic and profoundly human, this book takes the reader beyond the uniform - into the dust, the fear, the brotherhood and the invisible wounds that return home with you.
