Mil doscientos pasos

A man returns, after a long time, to his place of origin and, stationed at a point from which he can see all those places that marked his life - his home, school, where he played with his friends, where he experienced pain, violence, fear and hatred-, recalls his childhood and that vital frontier that is the transition to adolescence. One thousand two hundred steps is the exact distance that separates this man from the family home in this story of initiation, friendship, discovery of life and also of evil, of secrets not confessed for fear of consequences. This novel is the exciting account of a critical moment in our past: the hard and dark years of the postwar period.
