Summary "La guerra injusta; cartas de un español" by Armando Palacio Valdés is a collection of letters written during the early 20th century. The work serves as a moral and political commentary on the First World War, particularly focusing on the perspectives of the author as a Spanish observer reflecting on the nature of justice and injustice in warfare. The author grapples with themes of patriotism, human suffering, and the moral implications of national allegiances amidst global conflict. The opening of the book presents the author's profound contemplation regarding his stance on the war and those who suffer from it. Valdés describes his inner conflict between the haunting realities of war and his own moral convictions, ultimately declaring his support for France and the Allies. He critiques the motivations behind different national sympathies, emphasizing the need for sincerity and moral clarity in the face of such devastation. Through a blend of personal reflection and observational commentary, he vividly illustrates the somber atmosphere prevailing in France at the time, evoking both empathy and a call to understand the broader implications of the war.
