“The mechanical venus” by José Díaz Fernández

lavenusmecanica

“The book of short stories El blocao (1928) is splendid, where he very critically evokes his experiences of the Moroccan campaign after the Annual disaster; but even more interesting is the novel The mechanical Venus (1929), praised, among others, by Azorín and where he tries to unite, in a metaphorical style, the speed and fragmentation typical of the avant-garde, a clear social and even revolutionary intention.”

Taken from CVC.
