Unfinished portraits
Celia was a happy girl, a young woman requested, a loving wife and given up.

Master Juan Martínez who was there
After winning in European cabarets, the flamenco dancer Juan Martínez and his partner Sole were caught in Russia during the 1917 revolutions and the subsequent civil war, surviving between St. Petersburg, Moscow and Kiev in the midst of chaos, violence and misery. Manuel Chaves Nogales, to whom Martínez reported his experiences in Paris, transformed them into El maestro Juan Martínez, a novel based on real facts that portrays with human intensity a world populated by artists, Russian aristocrats, spies, chechists and opportunists, and that confirms Chaves as one of the great voices of Spanish narrative journalism of the 1930s.
