«El diario de Mamá» is the tenth adventure in the Marquis of Sotoancho series, a humorous novel by Alfonso Ussía, published by Editorial Planeta in hardcover (272 pages, in Spanish).
The mother of the Marquis of Sotoancho has died, but she has left a diary that continues to torment him from the grave. While the marquis reads it, he must organize a hunt with distinguished guests, alternating social obligations with memories that reveal his mother's wickedness. With illustrations by Barca, the novel ironically portrays the idle life of the high Spanish aristocracy and its superficial concerns.
The work belongs to the series «Memorias del marqués de Sotoancho», of which it is the tenth installment, and is set on the protagonist's Andalusian estate.
For readers who enjoy satirical humor and satires of manners about the Spanish aristocracy.
Alfonso de Ussía y Muñoz-Seca was a Spanish writer and journalist.
