Description

Una isla en el mar rojo is a novel by Wenceslao Fernández Flórez, first published in 1939. The author's personal experience of surviving the Civil War in Madrid informs this chronicle of horror and terror.

The story follows Ricardo, a lawyer who narrowly escapes assassination and takes refuge in an embassy, coinciding with the events the author lived through. The novel explores the moral consequences of war, revealing the worst aspects of human nature.

Through the daily life of refugees in the embassy, Fernández Flórez sheds light on the panic, desperation, and individual dramas that unfold during times of conflict. This powerful portrayal reflects the devastating impact of revolution on society.
