«El Giocondo» is the novel by Spanish writer Francisco Umbral, published by Editorial Planeta in paperback (192 pages, in Spanish).
A teenager longing for true love roams the Madrid night, from Puerta de Toledo to Pasaje San Ginés, crossing paths with truckers, hustlers, and other figures of the nocturnal scene. His encounters prove empty and fail to satisfy his search for connection: a novel about loneliness, desire, and identity.
The cover shows the subtitle «novela» and the Planeta Bolsillo imprint; it was published in July 1996.
For readers of contemporary Spanish fiction interested in nocturnal Madrid and characters on the margins of society.
Francisco Alejandro Pérez Martínez, better known as Francisco Umbral, was a Spanish journalist, novelist, biographer and essayist.
