\u201cPuente de hierro\u201d, la \u00faltima novela de Miguel Mena, es un tributo a una familia y una ciudad, Zaragoza, atravesadas por el paso del tiempo, por las alegr\u00edas y las penas de la vida, por la evoluci\u00f3n urban\u00edstica y los acontecimientos compartidos.<\/p>\n
\nEn primera persona, Carmen recuerda las vidas de su familia, liderada por 4 hermanas, su madre y sus t\u00edas, a partir de quienes conocemos a sus maridos, primos, sobrinas y dem\u00e1s parentescos. Podr\u00eda ser mi familia, tu familia, una familia m\u00e1s de la segunda parte del siglo XX. Una familia dispersa, en distintas ciudades de Espa\u00f1a. Una familia unida a trav\u00e9s del tel\u00e9fono fijo, los encuentros navide\u00f1os y veraniegos, las efem\u00e9rides cl\u00e1sicas (cumplea\u00f1os, bautizos, comuniones, bodas, funerales).<\/p>\n
\nEl Puente de Hierro, que une las dos m\u00e1rgenes del r\u00edo Ebro por Zaragoza, es la estructura de hierro por la que se contempla la transformaci\u00f3n de la ciudad. Desde el franquismo y la transici\u00f3n, por las p\u00e1ginas del libro (editado por Pregunta) pasa la historia reciente de la urbe: las luchas por la democracia, los a\u00f1os de plomo, las manifestaciones contra el trasvase, la insumisi\u00f3n, el gol de Nayim, los pelotazos urban\u00edsticos, el asesinato de Gim\u00e9nez Abad, la Expo\u2026 La ciudad cambia y la familia, tambi\u00e9n.<\/p>\n
\nGeneraci\u00f3n a generaci\u00f3n, cada quien anda su camino: estudios, trabajos, amor\u00edos, enfermedades, crianza, fobias y filiaciones pol\u00edticas, rencillas y afinidades familiares\u2026 Las cosas de la vida.<\/p>\n
\nLas d\u00e9cadas pasan, p\u00e1gina a p\u00e1gina, \u201ccomo un suspiro, un rel\u00e1mpago\u201d. Y la protagonista, Carmen, se pregunta \u201c\u00bfqu\u00e9 nos quedaba de aquel entonces?\u201d. Nos queda buscar \u201cla alegr\u00eda en medio de las estrecheces\u201d, el \u201ccoraje para salir adelante\u201d, esa \u201cvoluntad de hierro y coraz\u00f3n de oro\u201d de unas mujeres que construyen ese hilo invisible que es la familia, las ra\u00edces y las calles en las que vivimos.<\/p>\n
\nMiguel Mena escribe sencillo, cercano, accesible. Seguro que m\u00e1s de una se sentir\u00e1 identificada con esta \u00e9poca, estas vivencias, estas geograf\u00edas. Voy a prestar el libro a mi madre.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
