Sergio del Molino won the latest Alfaguara Prize for his novel The Germans. The German cemetery in Zaragoza is a fundamental setting of the novel.

The cemetery is still in use, although it lives (if the word can be applied to a cemetery) in a legal vacuum. The Germans is about three brothers, two men, Gabi and Fede, and a woman, Eva, from the German colony of ZaragoZA. The author has adapted it to his own style and has done the same with the history of the Germans.
