«La vida del Buscón» is the picaresque novel by Francisco de Quevedo y Villegas, published by Bruño in paperback (184 pages, in Spanish).
Pablos, the Buscón, grows up in a family of ill repute: his father is a barber and his mother is thought to be a witch. He enters the service of Diego, a young student, and stays at the house of the miserly licentiate Cabra, where hunger is constant. Through these misadventures, Quevedo satirizes seventeenth-century Spanish society.
This edition belongs to the Anaquel collection (no. 14) by Bruño, with introduction, notes and activities by Celsa Carmen García Valdés.
Aimed at literature students and those approaching the picaresque novel of the Golden Age for the first time.
Escritor y poeta español del Siglo de Oro, maestro del conceptismo, autor de El Buscón y de una vastísima obra poética y satírica.
