«Los monederos falsos» is the novel by French writer André Gide, published by Seix Barral in paperback (393 pages, in Spanish).
The novel weaves together the stories of a novelist, a group of young people, and some counterfeiters whose lives cross by chance. Through these encounters, it reflects on morality, authenticity, and the very construction of the narrative; chance becomes the force that orders destinies, against all rational explanation.
Work originally published in 1925 as «Les faux-monnayeurs»; this Spanish edition, translated by Julio Gómez de la Serna, belongs to the Biblioteca de Bolsillo collection from Seix Barral.
For readers of French literary classics and twentieth-century fiction who appreciate formal experimentation and reflection on writing.
André Paul Guillaume Gide was a French author whose writing spanned a wide variety of styles and topics. He was awarded the 1947 Nobel Prize in Literature. Gide's career ranged from his beginnings in the symbolist movement to criticising imperialism between the two World Wars. Author of more than 50 books, he was described in his New York Times obituary as "France's greatest contemporary man of letters" and "judged the greatest French writer of this century by the literary cognoscenti."
