Author's name: Joan Salas


Fleeting Glory is a novel by writer and publisher Juan Salas set against the backdrop of the Spanish Civil War of the 1930s, where Salas fought on the Republican side. The novel depicts the war in all its brutal complexity and offers no clear partisan message. As the great Spanish writer Juan Goytisolo noted in his introduction to one of the novel's many editions, Salas "bases his thinking not on certain facts, but on a life exposed to the absurdity of the world, to its cavalcade of blood, death, and injustice."
The novel is divided into four parts, but its focus remains the war, presented from the perspective of the defeated. Published in the 1950s, the work was censored in fascist Spain and was not published in its entirety in the author's homeland until 1971. Because of the novel's power, its author has been compared to Dostoevsky.
Joan Salas
Joan Salas was born in 1912 and fought with the Republicans during the Spanish Civil War in the 1930s. He is considered one of the most important writers and translators in Catalan and a pioneer in publishing in this language.
After the end of the Spanish Civil War, he lived in exile for nine years, then a year, to focus his work on promoting Catalan written culture. It was in this context that he published his most important novel, "Fleeing Glory."
