🍷 Wine and Read : Los santos inocentes 📖🐦

***Los santos inocentes*, Miguel Delibes **📖 En la Extremadura profunda de los años sesenta, una familia de campesinos sobrevive al servicio de los señores del cortijo bajo un régimen de explotación casi feudal. *Los santos inocentes* es una obra maestra de la literatura española: una denuncia feroz de la injusticia social 🏚️, narrada con una voz única que mezcla oralidad y poesía, y protagonizada por personajes que te romperán el corazón por su dignidad y su inocencia 💔. ✨ Delibes es de los grandes. Premio Cervantes incluido. Y este libro lo demuestra todo. 🎬** ¿Sabías que tiene película? **La adaptación de 1984 dirigida por Mario Camus es igualmente legendaria. Os recomendamos verla después de leer el libro para llegar a la sesión con todo. 🍷 Nos reuniremos en** [book bar bcn](https://www.thebookbarbcn.es/inicio) **para discutir el libro con una copa de vino en mano. Sin presiones. Solo gente curiosa y conversaciones con alma. 📚** ¿Dónde conseguir el libro? **Lo puedes comprar en cualquier librería local, en Casa del Libro o en librerías de Re-Read. Y si prefieres no comprarlo, recuerda que puedes pedirlo prestado gratuitamente en las bibliotecas públicas.💖 ***The Holy Innocents*, Miguel Delibes **📖 Set in rural Extremadura in the 1960s, this Spanish masterpiece follows a peasant family bound to a feudal estate, enduring daily humiliation with quiet dignity. Delibes writes with a raw, poetic voice unlike anything else in Spanish literature. A devastating critique of class and power 🏚️ that stays with you long after the last page 💔. ✨ A true landmark of 20th century literature and one of the most important novels ever written in Spanish. 🎬** It also has a film! **The acclaimed 1984 adaptation by Mario Camus is the perfect watch after finishing the book. Come to the session ready to talk about both! 🍷 Join us at** [book bar bcn](https://www.thebookbarbcn.es/inicio) **for an evening of books, ideas, and good wine. No pressure. Just curious people and real conversation. 📚** Where to get the book? **You can buy it at any local bookshop, at Casa del Libro or on Re-Read bookshops. Prefer to borrow it? The** Biblioteca de Barcelona **has you covered for free. 💖
