By: Luis Martín-SantosA young cancer researcher ventures through the streets, slums, and subcultures of Francoist Madrid in this widely roving, linguistically inventive novel—a sort of Spanish Ulysses, but infused with the grotesquerie and dark comedy of Goya—available here in a new translation and with previously censored material restored.
This novel of abortion and murder set in the squalor of the first decade of General Franco’s dictatorship follows a few days in the life of Don Pedro, a cancer research scientist with Nobel ambitions. His dallying with literary and philosophical coteries, his hunt for the right strain of experimental mice in Madrid’s slums, and the table talk at his boardinghouse are depicted here with anything but the social realism one might expect of a mid-twentieth century Spanish novel. Instead, Luis Martín-Santos presents us with an altogether innovative stream of consciousness, unfurling a lyrical yet jaundiced tableau of a society hitting rock bottom after years of authoritarian rule.
Published in 1962, Time of Silence is a masterpiece of modern Spanish fiction. Its vision of depressed individuals struggling to survive makes it a fictional fleur du mal for our times. Martín-Santos draws on the black humor of Goya and the wit of Joyce to create a picture of a world beyond hope, redeemed solely by genial self-mockery. Peter Bush's new translation gloriously restores all that was previously axed by Spanish censors.

solid, quality cabinet and the best wall mounting system I have seen in a while
Color: Black With Silver Handle, Size: 24x30
It is a quality cabinet and has the best wall mounting system I have seen in a long time. The cabinet is solid and sturdy and was easy to put together. I can already see it lasting a long time in our bathroom. It is a bit heavy and you may need a second person to assist with mounting.

Looks great.
Love the look. Took a bit to put it together. The only negative was putting on the back with the tack nails. There was no way to see if you were hitting the board so I missed it about 1/3 of the time. Might be better to use wood glue and forget using the nails.

Perfect for a small bathroom
Nice cabinet for the bathroom. I have a 120-year-old house with small bathrooms; this doubled the cabinet space; the white keeps the room visually larger. I'd like to add the instructions are awesome: no verbiage just step by step diagrams. Each hole drilled and ready, as well as pilot hole where the screws will be received. Each piece labeled. The instructions have in the listings the count of pieces with a notation of extra screws, so you don't think you "screwed up" when you're done. One note: as the shelves are part of the construction, they are not adjustable, in my case not a big deal.
