«Luces de bohemia» is the theatrical esperpento by Ramón del Valle-Inclán, published by Espasa-Calpe in paperback (144 pages, in Spanish).
The work follows Max Estrella, a blind bohemian poet, on his night-time journey through early 20th-century Madrid. Amid grotesque situations and biting dialogues, Valle-Inclán portrays the misery and hypocrisy of a society reflected in distorting mirrors; with this device he turns reality into a tragic and critical caricature.
Subtitled «Esperpento», it belongs to the Austral Collection (no. 1307); this edition includes a study by Alonso Zamora Vicente.
A common reading in the teaching of Spanish literature, it serves to delve into Valle-Inclán's theatre and his distorted vision of reality.
Dramaturgo, novelista y poeta español, creador del esperpento y autor de Luces de Bohemia y Tirano Banderas.
