«Diario de un hombre humillado» is the novel by Félix de Azúa, published by Editorial Anagrama in paperback (288 pages, in Spanish).
A man who longs for a world where one lived without thinking decides to make himself a perfect nobody in a society devoted to personality. Alone and on the margins, he roams his city, brushes against underworld circles, and collaborates with a mafioso mathematician. The appearance of an animal changes his course; for nine months he writes tributes, vengeances, and reflections.
It belongs to the Compactos collection, number 227, from Anagrama. It won the Herralde Novel Prize in 1987.
For readers of contemporary fiction who value irony, social criticism, and a sharp, disconcerting humor.
Félix de Azúa Comella is a Spanish professor of aesthetics and philosophy, poet, novelist, essayist and translator, member of Real Academia Española.
