«El barón rampante» is a novel by Italo Calvino published by Círculo de Lectores in paperback, in Spanish.
Cosimo di Rondó, a young Italian nobleman of the eighteenth century, rebels against his parents by climbing into the trees and swearing never to come down again. From the heights, he lives adventures, has love affairs and contemplates with irony the society of his time, while witnessing the passage of the Enlightenment and the beginning of a new century, in a fantastic narrative that reflects on individual freedom.
It is the second novel of Italo Calvino's trilogy Nuestros antepasados. This Spanish edition, from the Narradores del Mundo collection, was published in 1986. The work won the Premio Letterario Viareggio Rèpaci in 1957.
Ideal for readers of Italian literature classics and works that combine philosophical reflection and fantasy.
