En apretado y muy denso monólogo ceñido entre la dureza expresiva y la despiadada y atónita ternura, el autor, notario riguroso e inflexible de nuestro tiempo, levanta, con una madurez admirable el acta "inmisericorde" de los días que discurren en torno a San Camilo del año 1936, al 18/07/36. Sus páginas no son una novela de guerra, sino en la guerra, y en ellas el escritor, con una frialdad sobrecogedora, no bucea-aunque si respeta con toda puntualidad-los hechos históricos sobre los que siempre recae el acento de las medias verdades de cada cual, sino que narra, latido a latido, las vidas rotas y zarandeadas de los pobres títeres a quienes zurró la galerna. Como Albert Camus quería, no es este un libro escrito al servicio de quienes hacen la historia, sino en defensa de quienes padecen.
