His first novel De barro y esperanza appeared in 1957.[citation needed] In 1959, he was awarded the Ciudad de Barcelona prize for his work, El asesino de César..[2] He received the Premio Selecciones de Lengua Española for his 1963 work La ternura del hombre invisible, this was followed in 1968 by the Premio Nacional de Literatura "Miguel Cervantes" for the novel Auto de Fe. The Premio Planeta de Novela was awarded to him in 1973 for his biographical novel Azaña,[3] four years later, in 1977, he won the Premio Ateneo de Sevilla for Memorias inéditas de José Antonio Primo de Ribera. His 1979 work El Ingenioso hidalgo y poeta Federico García Lorca asciende a los infiernos won the Premio Nadal, and in 1984 he was awarded the Premio Espejo de España for El mundo mítico y mágico de Pablo Picasso.[4] These last works are all fictionalized biographies, a genre of which he was particularly fond.[citation needed]
