Description
Outlaws by Javier Cercas tells the story of three teenage outsiders in post-Franco Spain. In the late 1970s, as Spain transitioned from dictatorship to democracy, young people flocked to cities in search of better lives, but found limited opportunities and squalid housing. Thirty years later, a successful criminal defence lawyer is drawn back into his past when an old acquaintance asks for his help. The novel explores the complexities of human relationships and the fragility of identity through the eyes of its protagonist, Gafitas. As he navigates his complicated present, he must confront the choices and consequences of his youth. With its unadorned prose and keen ear for everyday speech, Outlaws is a thought-provoking exploration of rebellion, loyalty, and the human condition.
