| Summary | "Con la Pluma y con el Sable: Crónica de 1820 a 1823" by Pío Baroja is a historical account likely written in the early 20th century. This work narrates the social and political climate of Spain during the years following the War of Independence, specifically focusing on the liberal movements and conspiracies that emerged in small towns like Aranda de Duero. The story captures the aspirations and struggles of characters like Don Eugenio de Aviraneta, intertwining their lives with the evolving landscape of political reform and resistance. The opening of the book sets the scene on a festive summer day in 1820, highlighting the bustling atmosphere of Aranda de Duero as townspeople engage in celebrations following mass. As the reader is introduced to the local dynamics, a proclamation by the alcalde demands citizens report any suspicious activity amid rising tensions with a group of rebels. Aviraneta, the main character, is depicted in his early experiences following his arrival from Veracruz, facing societal challenges of being a part of the political turmoil as he navigates through recent changes and personal relationships. The narrative intricately weaves in various perspectives, reflecting the conflicting ideologies of liberals and royalists, foreshadowing the intricate plot unfolding throughout the book.
