    1980
    Author:
    Juan Vilà
    Publisher: Editorial Anagrama S.A.
    1980 is the story of a family like almost any other: completely mad. Or in other words, normal. There’s no sexual or domestic abuse here. There are powerful women, perhaps too many of them, and the men are dead or absent. There’s a progressive mother living in Madrid in the late seventies, listening to María Jiménez and toying with the possibility of running over Manuel Fraga.

Not even Scott's, even though they say she used to be mad about him.

    Sometime Mum has thunder in her head: she talks loudly and through clenched teeth. Sometimes she has clouds in her head: she forgets to make lunch and takes us to birthday parties late.
