«Últimas tardes con Teresa» is the novel by Juan Marsé, published by Mundo Actual de Ediciones in paperback (316 pages, in Spanish).
Set in Barcelona, the novel pits Manolo Reyes, el Pijoaparte, a motorbike thief of Murcian origin, against Teresa Serrat, a university student from a good family who flirts with the left. The class misunderstanding sustains an erotic and social relationship in which Marsé ironically portrays the hypocrisy of the bourgeoisie and the moral misery of the losers.
Novel winner of the Biblioteca Breve Prize. 1983 edition from the Biblioteca Básica Salvat collection, with a prologue by Mario Vargas Llosa, as described in the copy.
For readers of contemporary Spanish fiction and social bildungsromans with unforgettable protagonists.
