Thesecond half of the XX century experienced international phenomena ofan almost incomprehensible magnitude for commoners. In Spain thecivil war came as a cold wind in the core of families in long nightsof discussion and insomnia. The family argument used to be heated inthe shape of letters to those who were imagining a different world,another Hispanic present, and even another future. While theoristsand political scientists scattered rivers on ink in their periodicaleditorials and publications, there were more modest attempts,clandestine at the sight of the rest of society which looked tobecome the illumination of the long path of their loved ones, thosewrapped in the shadows of the individual and immediate. That longticket, of 46 sheets dated in 1933, accounts of a true intimateconference from Víctor Mendizábal to his brother Eusebio with whomhe had distanced himself on purpose due to what has happening in thepeninsula and the west.
