Dice Pilar Eyre “afraid” of not telling the story the way he wanted to. Not being able to “explain” oneself well and be able to “defend” it. However, when ‘When We Were Yesterday’ was done, Pilar Eyre is “very happy” with the outcome.

Is your book more special?

Beyond the events he tells, the contrast of values between mother and daughter in the novel is surprising.
Despite the context, the book is a mother and daughter’s love story, somewhat fictionalized, and I think one of the original forces that helps us live. Carmen has a lot of my mom and Silvia.

Is it a feminist story?
Back then, our colleagues on the left were just as sexist as those on the right. The fight was ours because the men never helped us. We moved forward because we came from minus zero. A girl who allowed herself to be touched was a prostitute and was no longer married, which was the ultimate goal.

I had to pay a very high price. They did a lot to me. My strength is my readers and this is an incentive for me to keep writing. They must be looking forward to my retirement.
you brought up the issue undargarine With Ainhoa Armentia. Is it special to your life?
I think, because of the effect it has, yes. It was a bomb.
Did you expect the Royal House to become so vulgar?
I don’t know how to make it coarse, but these were not going to happen.

are you very quiet
I am silent about things that I have no proof or cannot prove. I keep silent about things that I can’t defend in court or that will hurt people I care about. What we know is just the tip of the iceberg.
