by Daniel Villamediana (Author)

Un homenaje a la ?poca dorada del s?ptimo arte a trav?s de las aventuras de un cineasta que intenta sobrevivir a las inclemencias de una Europa entre guerras. Una ingeniosa novela que retrata el siglo XX desde una ?ptica diferente y entretenida, porque las grandes historias brillan tanto en la pantalla como en el papel.

Qui?n es Max von Spiegel?

Un p?caro? Un farsante?

Un hombre en busca de su verdadera identidad?

La historia de este director de cine empieza en las trincheras de la Primera Guerra Mundial, donde deja atr?s su nombre real. Tras sobrevivir a la contienda, decide comenzar una nueva vida en la Rep?blica de Weimar que le lleva a participar en la producci?n de la pel?cula Metropolis. All?, el gran Fritz Lang se convierte en su maestro, pero tambi?n en su rival, y cuando los nazis lo persigan, no le quedar? m?s remedio que huir a Espa?a.

Con la c?mara bajo el brazo, hasta el mism?simo Caudillo le abrir? las puertas del palacio de El Pardo. Pero las aventuras de Spiegel no acabar?n ah? espionaje, traici?n y el amor por el cine terminar?n llev?ndolo hasta Hollywood, donde podr?a encontrar por fin el anhelado ?xito..., aunque antes tendr? que enfrentarse una vez m?s a su ac?rrimo enemigo Lang.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A homage to the golden years of the silver screen through the adventures of a filmmaker attempting to survive the harshness of Europe between wars. An ingenious novel that portrays the twentieth century through a different and entertaining lens, because great stories shine as much on screen as they do on paper.

Who is Max von Spiegel?

A rogue? A phony?

A man in search of his true identity?

The story of this film director begins in the trenches of the First World War, where he leaves his real name behind. After surviving the conflict, he decides to start a new life in Weimar's Republic, which leads to his participation in the production of the movie Metropolis. There, the great Fritz Lang becomes his mentor, but also his rival, and when the nazis persecute Spiegel, he will have no other choice but flee to Spain.

With a camera under his arm, Franco himself will open El Pardo's doors for him. But Spiegel's adventures wont end there: espionage, betrayal, and his love of cinema will end up taking him to Hollywood, where he might finally find that long-yearned success... but before that, he will have to face his worst enemy once again, Lang.
