«La tercera palabra» is the stage comedy by Alejandro Casona, published by Edaf in paperback (160 pages, in Spanish).
Pablo is a young man who has grown up apart from the world, unable to read or write; when the teacher Marga teaches him, his new perspective reveals the contradictions of society and poses moral dilemmas. The work celebrates education and truth against lies and corruption, and turns love into a bridge between two worlds.
The play premiered on May 29, 1953, at the Teatro Odeón in Buenos Aires. This edition belongs to the Biblioteca Edaf collection, with chronology and introduction by Guillermo Suazo Pascual.
A title for fans of 20th-century Spanish theatre and for those who want an edition with an introductory study.
Alejandro Rodríguez Álvarez, known as Alejandro Casona was a Spanish poet and playwright born in Besullo, Spain, a member of the Generation of '27. Casona received his bachelor's degree in Gijon and later studied at the University of Murcia. After Franco's rise in 1936, he was forced, like many Spanish intellectuals, to leave Spain. He lived in Buenos Aires, Argentina until April 1962, when he definitively returned to Spain.
