In this episode, Berna González Harbour speaks with Javier Gallego, director of the Carne Cruda podcast and author of ‘La caída del imperio’ (Literatura Random House).

This first novel is a portrait of a generation of highly educated, but also precarious, lost thirty-somethings who are facing the demolition of their vital horizon, with a stop at 15-M. Gallego discusses his influences, from Virginia Woolf and Scott Fitzgerald to William Faulkner, and his most recent reads. Sergio C. Fanjul connects him with other generational literature and Jordi Amat reports Babelia's recommendations.
