«Divinas palabras» is the village tragicomedy by Ramón del Valle-Inclán, published by Espasa-Calpe in paperback (174 pages, in Spanish).
Set in rural Galicia, the work presents a succession of vignettes of marginalized characters. Avarice and lust trigger the struggle between Marica del Reino and Mari-Gaila over a crippled dwarf they exploit at fairs and pilgrimages, and Mari-Gaila's adultery with a wandering showman. The tragic and the comic merge in a language of exclamatory tone.
Austral Collection, no. 378, edited by Gonzalo Sobejano. Work originally published in 1919.
For literature students and readers interested in classic Spanish theater.
Dramaturgo, novelista y poeta español, creador del esperpento y autor de Luces de Bohemia y Tirano Banderas.
