Oversikt

Antologier - Boksamling

Bøker som har vært eller er forbudte

Bøker som på en eller annen måte adresserer at livet kan føles meningsløst

Trenger klart en ny liste i år. Er nesten ferdig med bok #72 på liste 2, som er full (100 bøker) og skal hente 6 bøker på biblioteket denne uka.

En liste over bøker jeg har lest i fra 2023-

Romaner og historie om Spanias borgerkrig
Den spanske borgerkrigen kom raskt i skyggen av 2. verdenskrig som brøt ut i september 1939. Likevel har denne blodige konflikten fascinert både historikere og skjønnlitterære forfattere siden. Det som startet som et militært, høyreorientert opprør mot den 5 år gamle spanske republikken ble etterhvert sett på som den første åpne kampen mellom fascister og demokratiske krefter på venstresiden. Men verken historien eller litteraturen framstiller borgerkrigen så enkelt.

Det finnes mange bøker om denne tiden, lista omfatter først og fremst dem jeg selv har lest. Den både supplerer og overlapper lista til guiritana. (Publisert 16.9.23, redigert 10.10.23).
