Manuel Aparicio Villalba

Manuel Aparicio Villalba was born in Seville one early August morning in 1964. He was hospital manager of the Virgen del Rocio University Hospital for 20 years, and his innovation and dedication to social issues enabled him to run international health projects with Mauritania. This first novel shows the influence of his experience, but unlike other stories its spatial environment is tangible. Villalatas existed, even though nobody remembers. They took his great grandmother to its nameless streets, and his grandmother grew geraniums in tomato tins in her windowless shack.
