In 1837, at the height of the Carlist Wars and a time of conflict between the past and future, a young Prussianman crosses the Pyrenees to fight for the ‘Order’. Finding himself trapped in the ruins of an abandoned city,his bewilderment at the war and what it means increases. Friendship, family, religion and politics: everythingis distorted, transformed or destroyed. The Others oscillates masterfully between humour and tragedy and is anovel full of music, eccentric characters and extraordinary scenes.
