The map that will reveal which novel best reflects your province
"At first, I thought of novels from any era set in each of the Spanish provinces. However, after starting with the map, I decided to go further. Only those novels published on or after January 1, 2001, year in which the 21st century began, they could form part of this map", explains Justo.
To give birth to this literary cartography, the communicator has not followed any other criteria than the one mentioned, that is why in it fit from best-sellers to minority titles . Thus, we find from the well-known the cathedral of the sea, by Ildefonso Falcones, who "sums up" Barcelona or The siege , by Pérez Reverte, who does the same with Cádiz, to more unknown books, such as I wait for you in the sea, by Diego Canca, who talks about Ceuta.

"Since the oldest books on this map are at most 17 years old, they still it's too early to say if any of them will go down in history of literature. For that very reason, let's enjoy of each of them without thinking about whether it is the best set in that province or not, since it would be a discussion that would never come to an end", defends the author in SER .
However, among those that have been read to carry out this work, which are not all (he has had help for those for which he did not have data), Justo believes that The city of gray eyes , by Félix G. Modroño, is "the one that most truthfully represents" the personality of the inhabitants of Bilbao . Do you agree? Find out by clicking on the provinces below!

"From Cell 211 in Zamora to Star Wars: Attack of the Clones , In sevilla. I hope you like it as much as the article about the novels!" exclaims Justo.
