by Alain Rene Le Sage (Author), James Townsend (Translator)
This satirical picaresque follows a wily young Spaniard whose ambition and charm carry him through a series of comic misadventures. From university halls to criminal dens, he encounters hypocrites, frauds, and romantics, navigating each twist with cunning and luck. A sharp and humorous exploration of social pretensions and human folly, the tale captures the spirit of 18th-century Spain while delivering timeless commentary on ambition and identity. With its episodic structure and ever-shifting fortunes, it's a classic journey through the absurdities of life, told with irreverent wit and enduring charm.
Alain-René Le Sage (1668-1747) was a French novelist and playwright, best known for his comic novel The Devil upon Two Sticks.
