Born to a Gothic social order, branded a haunter of men’s dreams, Vedette is traumatized when her small town in the magical wetlands of southern Spain’s Guadalquivir River is overrun by hashish-smoking anarchists promising free love and a life without sadness to those who would follow them.Entranced by their flamenco music, their philosophy of revenge, and the concrete ability to deliver political results, the young woman joins a movement destined to annihilation and becomes its sole survivor, burdened with the task of keeping its memory and project for a better world alive through conversations with their flamenco shadows.Transcending political viewpoints, Mr. Siciliano opens a new chapter in the understanding of the Spanish Civil War, opting for a literary interpretation that looks beyond right and wrong to more universal lessons only the passage of decades and the healing effects of time can reveal.
