Personal Review: Tiempo de Silencio (Spanish Edition) by Luis
Martin Santos
This novel has a recognizable argument: it's the history of Pedro, a young
physician inmediately after Spanish Civil War. Spain was blocked then
because his tolerance with the Axis powers during WW II. As it were Pedro
only wants to investigate about cancer, but at his institute there's lack of all
means. One of these is a special class of mice only available from the
USA. Howewer Pedro gets to know that some of these mice have been
robbed by a beadle of the research institute and maintained under terrible

2. conditions in the suburbs of Madrid. Pedro goes i n search of the mice and
so, he contacts with a horrorful underworld of degenerate criminals which
owns these animals.
Well, this plot may be more or less appealing, but the real merit of this
novel is the form, by nothing realist as XIX century type, but close to
"Ulysses" by Joyce or another modern novels. Martin Santos breaks the
normal linear discourse of the recit and remakes it with a strong appeal to
subsconcious sensations when poverty and impotence predominate. The
author dued in a car accident wwhile writing another unfinished novel.
