Esteban Navarro Soriano [1] (born 18 March 1965, in Moratalla, Murcia, Spain) is a Spanish novelist. [2] He is known for being one of the pioneers in digital publishing. [3] [4] [5] [6] Was an agent of the national police from 1994 to 2018. [7] [8]

Contents

Career

In April 2011 he was awarded at the La Balsa de Piedra contest, organized by the José Saramago Foundation, [9] for his novel El Buen Padre. [10] The novel is included as a guide to getting to know Madrid, the city where it is set. [11]

In January 2013, he was a finalist in the 69th edition of the Premio Nadal [12] [13] with the novel La noche de los peones. [14] [15]

His novel Una historia de policías has been very controversial, because Navarro, being a police officer, is about a mafia inside the national police. [16] [17] [18]

His novella La cuarta memoria was chosen for the Lloret Negre Black Novel Festival as the best black novel published in 2022. [19] [20]

Personal life

Navarro has been based in Huesca since 2001. [21] [22]

Is considered the creator of the term Generation Kindle, [23] referring to writers who emerged on the Kindle digital platform. [24] [25] This "Generación Kindle" [26] [27] brings together authors who, although they are of different ages and styles, publish their works through Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP). The term has been embraced by the media to refer to all the authors who publish and succeed through ebooks. [28]

The novel La casa de enfrente (The House Across the Street) is a paradigm of digital publishing, since its author is considered one of the pioneers. In a short time it became one of the best selling ebooks. [29] [30]

In his province, Huesca, he is known for organizing literary activities related to crime novels. [31] [32] [33]

He has won numerous short story awards. [34] [12] [35]

List of works

Controversy

In 2017, the Directorate-General of the Police opened an Information File of him in his capacity as an official of the National Police after having published his novel A history of police, although the author unlinked the file with the publication of this work. [79]

This news had a lot of media coverage even in international newspapers, such as The Guardian. [80] In the indictment they pointed out that "some officials of the police station in Huesca" were worried that their activity in social networks would damage the image of the body to which it belongs. [81]
