The book successfully offers a fresh perspective on Buero’s theater, acknowledging his pivotal role as a precursor of historical memory activism during Franco’s dictatorship, while also shedding light on his enduring influence on contemporary dramatists of the twenty-first century.» (Yenisei Montes de Oca, Associa
