Description
Pellicer nació en Valencia el 27 de mayo de 1937, unas dos horas antes del bombardeo de esa ciudad. Su padre, José Pellicer Gandía, fue un destacado revolucionario anarquista y fundador de la Columna de Hierro. Fue ejecutado en 1942. Mientras crecía, la política y los acontecimientos de la guerra no se discutían en su casa. Además de los recuerdos de la infancia, gran parte de su relato se basa en las historias de familiares o en su investigación de archivos sobre el papel de los anarquistas en la Guerra Civil española.
