«Los sueños» is a satirical work by Francisco de Quevedo, published by Espasa-Calpe in paperback (246 pages, in Spanish).
A series of five satirical and moralizing tales in which Quevedo criticizes the vices of 17th-century Spain: corruption, hypocrisy and ambition appear in allegorical visions such as the Last Judgment, Hell or death. His conceptist prose and exuberant language make this social critique a classic of the Spanish Baroque.
Work originally published in 1627; this 1974 edition belongs to the Austral Collection and appears as an extra volume.
Recommended for readers of Spanish literature classics and the Golden Age seeking social satire and Baroque prose.
Escritor y poeta español del Siglo de Oro, maestro del conceptismo, autor de El Buscón y de una vastísima obra poética y satírica.
