Camilo José Cela: A Rose in Padrón—in Spanish

Nobel Laureate Camilo José Cela, called "the leading figure in Spain’s literary renewal during the post-war era" by the Swedish Academy, combined a marked fondness for experiment, a provocative attitude, and an old Spanish tradition of hilarious grotesqueness, which so often constitutes the other side of despair. This lyrical program captures the insights of Cela and many who knew him, shedding light on subjects such as his childhood; his experiences during the Spanish Civil War; his winning of the Nobel Prize; his noteworthy contribution as publisher of the literary magazine Papeles de Son Armadans; and his prodigious oeuvre, including the book that first made his name, La Familia de Pascual Duarte—after Don Quixote, quite possibly the most read novel in Spanish literature. (Spanish, 56 minutes)
