JESÚS DÍEZ DE PALMA
Jesús Díez de Palma (Madrid, 1962) studied art history and was a teacher for some years, and currently works as an environmental educator in Madrid’s Retiro Park. He has had a longstanding relationship with the Second World War, from when he was a teenager and became a fan of scale models, which led him to read books and watch films related to the subject. Although the real subject of his novel El festín de la muerte, winner of the Gran Angular prize 2012, is not the second world war. It is war itself, which, as the author himself acknowledges, is the human expression he finds the most terrifying.
