Palencia
On May 7, the Spanish League of Education and Popular Culture, with the collaboration of the Junta de Castilla y León and the Popular University of Palencia, presents the new book of Ramiro Curies Ruiz, “The Rings of Walnut.”
It is a novel, with a lot of autobiography, which is a tribute to childhood, its emotional wealth and its right to be understood and heard. The story, which develops in an imaginary and small town of Cerrato Palencia, Heros de Cirratus, reminds us of Cobos de Cerrato where the author was born and lived his first years of childhood in the sixties of the last century.
His reading immerses us in the transit of childhood to puberty, in the nostalgia of the first changes and in the indelible footprint of those teachers and books that mark our lives forever, and in the drastic change that supposes for his life the subsequent transfer of the family to the capital.
With the perspective that takes time, and the experience that as a teacher and school counselor has the author, the book provides us with a vision between sweet and bitter of what involves the passage of childhood to adolescence, which can help many parents and teachers to better understand their children and students.
