A gripping narrative history of Spains most brilliant and troubled literary familya tale about the making of art, myth, and legacyset against the upheaval of the Spanish Civil War and beyondIn this absorbing and atmospheric historical narrative, journalist Aaron Shulman takes us deeply into the circumstances surrounding the Spanish Civil War through the lives, loves, and poetry of the Paneros, Spains most compelling and eccentric family, whose lives intersected memorably with many of the most storied figures in the art, literature, and politics of the timefrom Neruda to Salvador Dal, from Ava Gardner to Pablo Picasso to Roberto Bolao. Weaving memoir with cultural history and biography, and brought together with vivid storytelling and striking images, The Age of Disenchantments sheds new light on the romance and intellectual ferment of the era while revealing the profound and enduring devastation of the war, the Franco dictatorship, and the countrys transition to democracy. A searing tale of love and hatred, art and ambition, and freedom and oppression, The Age of Disenchantments is a chronicle of a family who modeled their lives (and deaths) on the works of art that most inspired and obsessed them and who, in turn, profoundly affected the culture and society around them.
