Literary synopsis
Minuta de un testamento is a lucid and seductive testimony full of humor. It is the self-portrait of a whole generation of postwar, exile, anti-Franco struggle, bohemian and, finally, freedom, success and glamour. A book full of sincerity, sense of humor and anecdotes in which Arroyo does not leave puppet with a head. The memories of Eduardo Arroyo, a genius of painting, an artist in a broad sense and intellectual front-line, have the vocation of being read as "a string of confidences full of stories" and "leave everything said, all stitched, all tied up".
