A Golden Age picaresque novel that follows the adventures of don Pablos, a young man of humble origins determined to climb the social ladder. Through his pranks, tricks and failures, Quevedo offers a biting satire of 17th-century Spain, using verbal wit and caricature. The volume is completed with the «Sueños», a work in which the author criticizes the vices and trades of his era through allegorical visions.

Recommended for readers of classic Spanish literature who want to approach Quevedo's satirical prose with the support of explanatory notes.
