    Annotation:

    The short stories collected in Del cielo y del escombro illustrate Serrano Plaja�s change of heart with regard to the historical events of the Thirties. We studies the political, aesthetic, and existential trajectory of this author, whose literary purpose it was to create a form of art which would eschew both the playfulness of art for art�s sake and the heavy-handedness of propaganda. This trajectory, however, culminates in failure, as the project of a redeeming humanism is revealed to be impossible: ultimately, the stories renounces all kinds of idealization to embrace nihilism, thus prefiguring the themes of Plaja�s poems of exile.
