Libro: La vida del lazarillo de Tormes (Castalia Didáctica) (Spanish Edition)

Lázaro de Tormes, boy of humble origin, tells us his history in first person. Although without honor, he was born in the river of Salamanca, the Tormes; stayed an orphan, a miller thief, and was put in the service of a blind man…Through fortunes and adversities, Lázaro evolves from his initial naivety developing a true survival instinct. With a sense of humor and a satirical lens, Lázaro speaks to us of the reality of a country of beggars, clergy that don’t practice charity, gentlemen reluctant of work and preoccupied only by their honor, bull sellers that take advantage of the good faith of the people and young people who’s main aspiration is to not go hungry. The themes, impeccable writing, great analysis of the social circumstances, the epoch and on top of it all, the vital impulse of the protagonist makes La vida de Lázarillo of Tormes as one of the top works within literature.
