«Nancy, doctora en gitanería» is the humor novel by Ramón J. Sender, published by Magisterio Español in paperback (288 pages, in Spanish).
Nancy, a young American woman, returns from Seville to the United States to present her doctoral thesis on the gypsies, «El gitano como entidad frenética». The defense before an academic committee gives rise to a cordial satire of Americans' superficial knowledge of Spain and of the university environment.
Second installment of Ramón J. Sender's «Nancy» series, published in 1974 in the «Novelas y cuentos» collection (no. 144).
For readers of twentieth-century Spanish fiction who appreciate Sender's cordial satire and critical gaze on Spain.
