Franco's Crypt: Spanish Culture and Memory Since 1936

by Jeremy Treglown - History, Nonfiction

Inside Spain as well as outside, many believe --- wrongly --- that under Francisco Franco’s fascist dictatorship, nothing truthful or imaginatively worthwhile could be said or written or shown. In FRANCO'S CRYPT, Jeremy Treglown argues that oversimplifications like these of a complicated, ambiguous actuality have contributed to a separate falsehood: that there was and continues to be a national pact to forget the evils for which Franco’s side (and, according to this version, his side alone) was responsible.
