This work brings together poems from 1934 to 1939 and is divided into four sections: the first, La familia (The Family), is a reckoning with Alberti's childhood and adolescence, marked by the bourgeois environment and religion. The second section is an undeniable manifestation of the social commitment the poet chose to embrace. The third section includes the work 13 bandas y 48 estrellas (13 Bands and 48 Stars), while the fourth, Capital de la gloria (Capital of Glory), is a vibrant canto inspired by the struggle and resistance of Republican Spain during the bloody Civil War.
