5.0 out of 5 stars Haunting novel by Camilo Jose Cela, March 24, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: La familia de Pascual Duarte (Paperback)

I have read this book several times and make new discoveries every time I read it. This haunting, shocking novel was published shortly after the Spanish Civil War and reflects the atmosphere of tension, horror, fear and disapointment felt by Spain at that time. The graphic and inhumane actions of the protagonist reveal a deeper meaning to the novel and it must be read carefully.

This review is from: La Familia De Pascual Duarte (Coleccion Destinolibro, V. 4) (Spanish Edition) (Mass Market Paperback)

Un interesante acercamiento a los eternos opuestos. Es el bien algo absoluto? y el mal?. Es Pascual Duarte el verdugo o es la víctima?
Es un libro para ser leído al menos dos veces, la primera para disfrutarlo y la segunda o subsecuentes para ser analizado. Así que, si tu intención es el disfrute, aquí tienes algo para disfrutar. Si te interesa el análisis literario, psicológico o sociológico, también lo encuentras en esta obra de Don Camilo.

5.0 out of 5 stars La miseria de la España del tercer mundo, March 14, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: La Familia De Pascual Duarte (Coleccion Destinolibro, V. 4) (Spanish Edition) (Mass Market Paperback)

A traves de un personaje perseguido por su propio destino, Cela hace un recuento de la miseria de la España del tercer mundo creado por la sangrienta guerra civil española. Este personaje, a pesar de tener poca educación, cuenta su vida desde la carcel en la que estuvo después de cometer crimenes por accidente. Es una historia bien relatada, entretenida, triste, y realista. Es digna de leer.
