Bajo su tono desgarrado, lúcido, divertido y trágico a un tiempo, Arturo Pérez-Reverte desvela una descarnada y mordaz visión de la guerra y de la condición humana.

La sombra del águila narra una historia ficticia basada en un hecho real: durante la campaña de Rusia de 1812, en un combate adverso para las tropas napoleónicas, un batallón de antiguos prisioneros españoles, enrolados a la fuerza en el ejército francés, intenta desertar, pasándose a los rusos. Interpretando erróneamente el movimiento, el Emperador lo toma por un acto de heroísmo y ordena en su auxilio una carga de caballería que tendrá imprevisibles consecuencias.

Este relato breve fue publicado en el diario El País en agosto de 1993, mientras Arturo Pérez-Reverte cubría, como reportero, el conflicto de Bosnia.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Arturo Pérez-Reverte reveals a stark, humorous, piercing, tragic, and scathing vision of war and the human condition.

The Shadow of the Eagle is based on a true story. During the Russian campaign of 1812, as the Napoleonic troops fight a battle they are about to lose, a battalion of former Spanish prisoners, forcibly enrolled in the French army, tries to join the Russians. Misinterpreting their intentions, the Emperor takes it for an act of heroism and orders a cavalry charge to their aid, with unforeseeable consequences.

This short story was published in El País in August 1993, while Arturo Pérez-Reverte was reporting from Bosnia.

Five Stars. Exactly what I needed for my space
Color: Black
I live in a small NYC apartment, so creating separation without making things feel cramped is always a challenge. This divider did the job perfectly. It was easy to set up right out of the box. No complicated instructions, just unfold and place it where you need it. The size is great. It actually gives real coverage and privacy without looking bulky. The fabric looks clean and professional, and the black color blends well with everything. I’ve used it to separate my workspace from my living area, and it instantly made my place feel more organized. It’s also lightweight enough to move around, but still sturdy enough to stay in place. If you need a simple, affordable way to create privacy or sections in a small space, this is a solid choice.
