«Zafarrancho en Cambridge» is Tom Sharpe's satirical novel, published by Editorial Anagrama in paperback (240 pages, in Spanish).
Porterhouse, a Cambridge college, depends on donations: in return, parents get their children admitted and graduated. A new reformist master, determined to modernize the institution, clashes with the veteran porter Skullion. The struggle unleashes a spiral of entanglements that satirizes corruption and academic inertia.
First installment of the «Porterhouse Blue» series; translation by Javier Fernández de Castro. No. 117 of Anagrama's Compactos collection.
A choice for fans of British satire and Tom Sharpe's absurd humor.
