Un accidente real en el País Vasco de los años ochenta, la vida devastada de una familia. Una historia emocionante, adictiva y conmovedora, como solo Aramburu sabe contar.


Nicasio, ya jubilado, acostumbra a subir los jueves al cementerio de Ortuella a visitar la tumba de su nieto. Es uno de los muchos niños fallecidos tras una explosión de gas en un colegio de aquella localidad, un accidente que sacudió al País Vasco y a toda España en 1980. Por las andanzas del abuelo, una figura que se agranda hasta hacerse inolvidable, por el testimonio de la madre muchos años después, por la crónica objetiva de lo que le ocurrió a la familia, descubriremos cómo aquella tragedia lacerante y devastadora les alteró, cómo sacó a relucir aspectos inesperados, cómo trastocó sus vidas. Con la maestría habitual de Aramburu, el lector se verá inmerso en una historia de emociones inesperadas, una exploración psicológica y literaria con afilado bisturí que nos mantiene pegados al devenir de los destinos de los protagonistas. Una novela que alberga una densidad emocional tan alta que exige una lectura atenta, hasta la última línea, para entender, comprender, emocionarnos con el destino de sus protagonistas.


Nueva entrega del extraordinario friso de «Gentes Vascas», El niño es una historia desgarradora, inolvidable, un prodigio literario del mejor Aramburu. Por el tratamiento humanísimo de los protagonistas, y por los recursos literarios empleados, El niño vuelve a ser una novela memorable, llamada a convertirse en acontecimiento literario.


ENGLISH DESCRIPTION


A real accident in the Basque Country in the 1980s, the devastated life of a family. An exciting, addictive, and moving story, as only Aramburu can tell.


Nicasio, now retired, usually goes up to the Ortuella cemetery on Thursdays to visit his grandson's grave. He is one of the many children who died after a gas explosion in a school in that town, an accident that shook the Basque Country and all of Spain in 1980. Through the adventures of the grandfather, a figure that grows until it becomes unforgettable, through the testimony of the mother many years later, through the objective chronicle of what happened to the family, we will discover how that lacerating and devastating tragedy altered them, how it brought out unexpected aspects, how it disrupted their lives. With Aramburu's usual mastery, the reader will be immersed in a story of unexpected emotions, a psychological and literary exploration with a sharp scalpel that keeps us glued to the unfolding destinies of the protagonists. A novel that harbors such a high emotional density that it demands attentive reading, to the last line, to understand, comprehend, and be moved by the fate of its protagonists.


The new installment of the extraordinary fresco of "Gentes Vascas," El niño is a heartbreaking, unforgettable story, a literary marvel of the best Aramburu. Due to the deeply human treatment of the protagonists and the literary resources employed, El niño is once again a memorable novel, destined to become a literary event.

Do not buy.
Size: 3.5 Ounce (Pack of 6)
As in my headline, DO NOT BUY this soap. there are a few reasons why I say that and I will cover them all here, but first and foremost, I say that because this soap is MADE IN CHINA..... now just take a moment to think about this. It is a soap, very basic common ingredients here, and its still cheaper for this company to have this made all the way in China and then ship it over here to the US and sell it, rather than just making it here (like almost all other soap companies do) in the US. It is TERRIBLE soap. it is made with the cheapest ingredients that you can find, and one of my other reasons for not liking it is because it smells like CHEMICALS. the scents do not smell like what they are labeled as. They have a very heavy chemical smell to them all, and then some very slight floral and other weird scents that I cant describe. The tobacco scent has absolutely no "tobacco scent" to it at all and the same goes for the leather. the last reason why I say to not buy the soap is because its a complete rip off. We already know that it cost nearly nothing to make this, because they are outsourcing the manufacture of one of the most common substances there is (hand soap) overseas to China, but they still have the nerve to charge a premium price for VERY SMALL bars of soap. the bars are not even that big, they are small when compared to other soaps like this. do yourself a favor, pass this one by and go for a different listing. if you buy this one, you will only be purchasing regret...

Natural, Gentle, and Smells Great
Style: Most Popular
I picked these up to try something more natural, and I love them. They lather well, feel gentle on the skin, and leave it feeling clean without drying it out. The scents are really nice too. They feel like good quality bars.

Longevity, scent, quality 10/10
Style: Most Popular
I’ve gone through just about the whole box and I will be buying more. I bought these early November 2025 and now that it’s almost May of 2026 I’m down to my last two bars so id say they last awhile. I use them for body wash and will be using them for hand soap once I go through my stash of bar soaps from other brands. It lathers nicely, with a light scent, natural not over bearing chemical scents. I use this as body wash and hand soap. I haven’t noticed any skin irritation, just a good ole natural soap (: I love how there’s no plastic in sight other than maybe amazon packaging
