About
"La Media Noche" es una breve novela de ramón María del Valle-Inclán que describe con crudeza, pero en párrafos que alcanzan una gran belleza, la postura del autor sobre la Primera Guerra Mundial y sobre la guerra en general. Dicho conflicto también tuvo un campo de batalla literario en el que Vallé-Inclán toma un evidente partido por Francia y sus aliados. Inspirada en su experiencia visitando los escenarios de la conflagración, "La Media Noche" es una obra experimental y ambiciosa, desgarradora y seductora al mismo tiempo, que pretende aprehender y transmitir una visión de conjunto sobre el gran teatro de la guerra que se desarrollaba en cientos de kilómetros de frente destruyendo las vidas de tantos y tantos inocentes. Y es que la mirada del autor, por comprometida y maniquea que resulte en algunas de sus páginas, es profundamente empática con las víctimas del conflicto, lleven uniforme o no.

Inspired by his experience visiting the battlefront, "La Media Noche" is an experimental and ambitious work, heartbreaking and seductive at the same time, which aims to apprehend and transmit an overall view of the great theater of war that unfolded over hundreds of miles of front lines, destroying the lives of so many innocent people. The author's gaze, however compromised and manichean it may seem in some of its pages, is deeply empathetic with the victims of the conflict, whether they wear uniforms or not.
