Nothing has impacted 20th-century Spain as profoundly as Franco's dictatorship. Even half a century after the caudillo's death, the echoes of his policies still reverberate in modern-day Spain. Nicolás Sesma offers a fresh perspective on the history of this period, focusing not only on General Francisco Franco and the Civil War, but also on the postwar period and the 1970s, economic development, the anti-Franco opposition, the black market, and consumer culture. All of this is accompanied by cultural references—from literature and film to graphic novels and pop art—that complement the engaging narrative. Thus, we are offered an interpretation of Franco's dictatorship through the prism of the 21st century, reminding us that during these forty years, Spain was neither united, nor great, nor free.
