Abstract

Luis López Álvarez (La Barosa, León, 1930) is mainly known as a poet, his book Los comuneros (1972) being one of the most read and celebrated in the Spanish Democratic Transition. But his prose –essays and novel— is hardly known in Spain. This part of his production is strongly bond to his experience in Africa during the process of decolonization of the Congo. López Álvarez publishes several articles and essays about that process, and finally one novel, Cóncavo Congo (2008), meant to be the first part of a (still uncompleted) trilogy.
