«Divinas palabras» is the village tragicomedy by Ramón del Valle-Inclán, published by Austral in paperback (160 pages, in Spanish).
The action takes place in a Galician rural world evoked from memory and is structured in tableaux populated by marginal beings. Greed and desire pit Marica del Reino against Mari-Gaila over a crippled dwarf; Mari-Gaila's adultery with a travelling player unleashes the conflict, which ends with the sexton forgiving his wife.

A reference work for readers of Spanish theatre and for discovering the origin of Valle-Inclán's esperpento.
