Un clásico de nuestra época, con nuevo prólogo y edición.
«En el caso de Sergio del Molino y La España vacÃa se combinaron la magia de la literatura y la de la oportunidad . -Ignacio MartÃnez de Pisón, La Vanguardia
Llega al catálogo de Alfaguara un tÃtulo que ya es historia reciente: el libro que cambió la mirada sobre la despoblación y la señaló como un fenómeno crucial para entender la España de hoy. La etiqueta «España vacÃa generó una conversación nueva, llegó a los programas polÃticos, llenó librerÃas y espacios culturales, y ha acabado por convertirse en una sección fija de los medios y las agendas electorales. El asunto de «lo rural y «lo urbano volvió a ser un género literario que dio pie a una enorme bibliografÃa y revitalizó, además, el ensayo para la generación más joven de escritores y lectores. La España vacÃa habla de una gran parte de nuestro paÃs, pero también de todo el mundo occidental, donde la vida en los pueblos se separa cada vez más de la urbana; habla de recursos, de polÃtica, de literatura y tradiciones, del pasado y del futuro, y de cada uno de nosotros, de nuestra historia y nuestras historias. Esta nueva edición incorpora un nuevo prólogo del autor escrito en 2022, junto a todo el contenido original revisado. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A classic of our times, featuring a new prologue and edition.

From the Alfaguara catalogue comes a new edition of the book that zeroed in on the phenomenon of population loss and identified it as crucial to understanding modern-day Spain. The term empty Spain sparked a new type of conversation, led to new government policies, inspired countless books and cultural projects, and became a mainstay of the media and electoral agenda. The concept of the rural-urban divide launched a prolific literary genre and revitalized the essay as a format for debate for a new generation of writers and readers. The premise of An Empty Spain holds true not only for the country of its title but for much of the western world, where life in rural areas has grown to seem ever more distant from its urban counterpart. It encompasses everything from resources, politics, literature, tradition, the past and the future to each one of us, our history and our stories. This new edition includes a new 2022 prologue by the author as well as the full, updated original content.
