Synopsis "Años Lentos: Vii Premio Tusquets Editores de Novela (Andanzas) (in Spanish)"

A finales de los anos sesenta, el protagonista, un nino de ocho anos, se va a vivir con sus tios a San Sebastian. Alli es testigo de como transcurren los dias en la familia y el barrio: su tio Vicente, de caracter debil, reparte su vida entre la fabrica y la taberna, y es su tia Maripuy, mujer de fuerte personalidad pero sometida a las convenciones sociales y religiosas de la epoca, quien en realidad gobierna la familia; su prima Mari Nieves vive obsesionada por los chicos, y el hosco y taciturno primo Julen es adoctrinado por el cura de la parroquia para acabar enrolado en una incipiente ETA. El destino de todos ellos -que es el de tantos personajes secundarios de la Historia arrinconados entre la necesidad y la ignorancia- sufrira, anos despues, un quiebro. Alternando las memorias dikensianas del protagonista con los apuntes del escritor, Anos lentos ofrece ademas una brillante reflexion sobre como la vida se destila en una novela, como se trasvasa el recuerdo sentimental en memoria colectiva, mientras su escritura diafana deja ver un fondo turbio de culpa en la historia reciente del Pais Vasco. / An eight year old child goes to live with his uncle. He witnesses how the days go on the family and neighborhood. His uncle Vicente has a weak character, his aunt Maripuy, has a strong personality, his cousin Mari Nieves lives obsessed with boys, and cousin Julen is indoctrinated by the priest. But their fate will suffer a breakdown.
