«Cara de plata» is the barbaric comedy by Ramón del Valle-Inclán, published by Espasa in paperback (224 pages, in Spanish).
In this barbaric comedy, Valle-Inclán presents a mythical and heroic vision of rural Galicia, where the rise of a hardworking bourgeoisie and the biological decline of the old noble families end up destroying them, blinded by elemental passions before the astonished gaze of peasants and beggars.
Cara de plata (1922) begins the plot history of the Comedias bárbaras, with Águila de blasón and Romance de lobos. Critical edition by Antón Risco; number 21 of Clásicos castellanos.
For readers of Spanish theatre and literary modernism; Valle-Inclán is a key figure in twentieth-century Spanish literature.
Spanish playwright, novelist and poet, creator of the 'esperpento' style and author of Bohemian Lights and Tirano Banderas.
