February 1981. Shots ring out in Spain’s parliament. Cameras keep rolling. In The Anatomy of a Moment, one of Spain’s most important books of the past 50 years, Javier Cercas revisited the only coup ever captured live on film, transforming the footage into a forensic, gripping narrative. Now, on the 45th anniversary of its inciting event, he reflects on using a novelist’s tools to interrogate a nation’s defining crisis and reveal its very soul. Chaired by Chris Power.
