«Romance de lobos» is the second part of the «Comedias bárbaras» cycle by Ramón del Valle-Inclán. This masterpiece of Spanish literature depicts the decline of the Montenegro noble lineage, focusing on the patriarch, Don Juan Manuel, and his conflictive relationship with his sons, who, driven by greed, harass the old man until a tragic end. With a style that anticipates the 'esperpento', the author portrays the moral decay of a family and the end of a traditional society facing the rise of the new bourgeoisie.
