Sinopsis

Theirs was a relationship born out of war and exile. His was the first ever account for English readers of what life was really like in prewar and then war torn Spain. We spoke candidly and at length to the literary agent and book publisher Uli Rushby Smith, who lived with Arturo Barea and his polyglot and activist wife, Ilsa Barea, in a cottage withouth electricity in the English country side. We talked of the curious origins of The Forging of a Rebel, Arturo's short stories, of making England their home and his work at the BBC World Service. Also of their marriage and working relationship, Arturo's and Ilsa's legacy, of Pushkin Press plus the realities of Austrian exiles during the Second World War and life in an Austrian village during the Russian invasion. A memorable and warm evening at her house in north London. With Uli Rushby Smith, Eugene Ludlow, Jorge Ramírez and Juan Toledo
