LA BIOGRAF?A DE UN PA?S EN TRANSICI?N «Del Molino no hace m?s que usar a su modo lib?rrimo ese g?nero h?brido, casi infinitamente vers?til y omn?voro que llamamos novela . -Javier Cercas, El Pa?s «Del Molino escribe con ligereza, pero en todo momento se refleja su rico mundo pol?tico, literario y cultural . -Andr? van Loon, The Spectator «Quiz? empecemos a apreciar ser hijos de la Transici?n m?s que nietos de la guerra civil . Se cumplen cuarenta a?os del primer triunfo del partido socialista en las elecciones generales (octubre de 1982) y de la llegada al poder de un joven abogado sevillano, Felipe Gonz?lez, que en 2022 ha llegado a los ochenta a?os. Un tal Gonz?lez narra un momento crucial de la historia de Espa?a: la Transici?n, siguiendo el hilo biogr?fico de su gran protagonista. La figura de Felipe Gonz?lez vertebra el relato, pero su foco es una Espa?a que pasa en menos de una generaci?n de la misa y el partido ?nico a la democracia avanzada y la completa integraci?n europea. Una biograf?a documentada con testimonios de primera mano, cr?nicas, hemeroteca y el pulso de un narrador que ha contado como nadie la Espa?a de hoy. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION THE BIOGRAPHY OF A TRANSITIONING COUNTRY. "Del Molino does nothing but use this hybrid, almost infinitely versatile, and omnivorous genre we call the novel in his own absolutely free manner." --Javier Cercas, El Pa?s "Del Molino writes with lightness, and yet reflects his rich political, literary, and cultural world at all times." --Andr? van Loon, The Spectator "Perhaps we can start appreciating being children of the Transition instead of grandchildren of the Civil War." It has been forty years since the first win of the socialist party in general elections (October, 1982) and the ascension to power of a young Sevillian lawyer, Felipe Gonz?lez, who turned eighty in 2022. A Man Called Gonz?lez relates a crucial moment in Spanish history: the Transition, following the biographical thread of its great protagonist. Felipe Gonz?lez' character vertebrates the story, but the focus is a country that, in less than one generation, goes from Sunday mass and a single political party, to advanced democracy and complete European integration. A biography documented with first-hand testimonies, chronicles, archives, and a storyteller's pulse that describes modern-day Spain like no other.
