'The Low Voices' draws on a patchwork of memories from Rivas's early life under Franco and is full of personal stories such as his first fight, using suitcases for school chairs (a reminder of the grinding poverty that forced many to leave Galicia), and his burgeoning career in journalism, against a background of memories of the Spanish Civil War.
