La narración más detallada de las desconocidas luchas intestinas en la coalición que ganó la Guerra Civil, por uno de los más prestigiosos estudiadores del franquismo.

Was Berbiguier harassed by imps? Maybe Jules Verne did belong to a secret society. Have any works been inspired by dreams—or by insanity?...
