A novel which "represents a culmination of the 1989 Nobel Prize winner Camilo Jose Cela's literary art. In 1936, at the beginning of the Spanish Civil War, 'Lionheart' Gamuzo is abducted and killed, an event recalled repeatedly by the widowed Adega, one of the several narrative voices. In 1939, when the war ends, Tanis Gamuzo avenges his brother. For both events, and for them only, the blind accordion player Gaudencio plays the same mazurka."
