There is only one narrator in La casa del padre (1994), a novel by the Spanish writer Justo Navarro. At the beggining the readear knows nothing about the circonstances in which the narration is being generated. But as the story goes on, one learns that a long time has elapsed between the moment the narrator tells it (late eighties) and some acts he performed during the Spanish Civil War and the years following. It then becomes clear the inmoral significance of the crimes commited by the narrator in his youth, which he has managed to keep them secret and which are the murky concealed origins of his present happy existence. Thus the shady postwar period shows itself as the rotten root on which Spanish contemporary life has fed. The lenghty time distance from which the narrator tells his past life and his cinic attitude to it, account for the ironic tone and other aspects of style in this novel.
