Paperback. Condición: Good. The best books ever written.Edition by Edmond Cros, professor emeritus of Spanish and Latin American Literature at the University in Montpellier. The son of a thief and a witch, Pablos, the Swindler, begins to work for a rich young man, lives in Alcal in the court, and ends up traveling to America. Although its plot isn't very different from other works in the genre, The Swindler isn't your typical picaresque novel. The mastery of its writing, the vivacity and sarcasm in the description of characters and situations, the intelligent cruelty of its anecdotes make it a work that exceeds the limits of its genre, a picaresque novel that turns the archetype up a notch. This edition includes an introduction that contextualizes the work, a system of notes, a timeline, and an essential bibliography, as well as several discussion and debate prompts based on the reading.

Paperback. Condición: Good. Emilia Pardo Bazan (1852-1921) stands as perhaps the Spanish speaking world's greatest woman novelist. Along with Galdos and Clarin she was one of the three most important writers of late 19th century Spain. An intellectual of astounding breadth, she was the leading exponent of the Naturalist literary school in her country - as attested by her numerous theoretical writings on the subject - and was an outspoken feminist. Her many novels introduced Naturalism into Spanish literature. The Swan of Vilamorta (originally published in 1891) was among those about social decay in her native Galicia.…
