His following novel, El nombre que ahora digo (The Name I Now Speak), is considered by some as one of the best depictions of life in the Republican sector during the Spanish conflict. In an article in El Pais in 2014, Professor Paul Preston is quoted as saying, “I don\u2019t like reading novels about the Civil War, but an exception was El nombre que ahora digo, written by Antonio Soler some twenty years ago, which blew me away.\u201d (\u201cPrefiero no leer novelas de la Guerra Civil, aunque como excepci\u00f3n me chifl\u00f3 una de Antonio Soler de har\u00e1 unos veinte a\u00f1os: El nombre que ahora digo.\u201d)[3]  He has repeated the sentiment more recently in seminars at the Ca\u00f1ada Blanch Centre (LSE), commenting that it is one of the few novels to capture the sense of confusion and disorder prevailing during the siege of Madrid.

The principal narrative thread revolves around a moribund body discovered early in the morning on a patch of waste ground. The body is being consumed by ants. We learn that it belongs to a lawyer, Dionisio. His story is related in a number of flashbacks, some from his own perspective and others from the perspective of his wife, Ana. There are many more sub-threads and characters which combine to weave the social fabric of the city, but although their lives are intertwined in a complicated network, for the most part the characters are each wrapped up in their own separate worlds, isolated by their inability to communicate with each other. This contrasts starkly with the world of the ants, working together in harmony in pursuit of a collective goal.Soler was writer in residence at Dickinson College, Pennsylvania, and has given courses and lectures at numerous universities and cultural institutions in Europe, Latin America, the US and Canada.[6] He is a founder member of the Order of Finnegans, a literary group created in honour of James Joyce’s novel Ulysses, which takes its name from a pub in Dalkey, Ireland.[7] The other four founding members are Eduardo Lago, Jordi Soler, Enrique Vila-Matas and Malcolm Otero Barral.Bibliography[edit]Short stories[edit]1992 – Extranjeros en la noche (Strangers in the Night), including the novella La Noche (The Night).Novels[edit]1993 – Modelo de pasi\u00f3n (Model of Passion).
