Having lost the Civil War in Spain, four republican rebels lead a fugitive existence deep in the Cantabrian mountains. They're on the run - knowing that surrender means execution. Faced with the lonely mountains, harsh winters and unforgiving summers, it is only a matter of time before the Fascists hunt them down. Published in 1985, 'Wolf Moon' was the first novel to break with the Pact of Forgetting (Pacto del Olvido), a political and cultural amnesty in Spain provided for Franco's supporters following his death in 1975. Llamazares's lyrical prose serves to animate the wilderness, making the Spanish landscape as much a witness to the brutal oppression of the Franco regime as the persecuted villagers and republicans.
