«Luces de Bohemia» is the theatrical esperpento by Ramón del Valle-Inclán, published by Austral in paperback (304 pages, in Spanish).
The work follows Max Estrella, a blind and bohemian poet, on a night-time journey through early 20th-century Madrid. Through dialogues and encounters, Valle-Inclán offers social criticism: the city is a miserable and unjust space, and reality becomes distorted until it turns into an esperpento, a grotesque caricature of the Spain of that era.
This edition, published in 2010, includes the introduction by Alonso Zamora Vicente and a reading guide and glossary by Joaquín del Valle-Inclán. The work was originally published in 1920.
For literature students and readers interested in 20th-century Spanish theater.
Dramaturgo, novelista y poeta español, creador del esperpento y autor de Luces de Bohemia y Tirano Banderas.
