The novel recounts the life of Pablos, a young man of humble origins and a less-than-exemplary family who seeks to get ahead and climb society's ladder. Along the way he encounters deceit, hunger and mockery, and his ambitions end in continual failure. Quevedo combines verbal wit and relentless satire to offer a distorted, critical view of his era.

Edition aimed at secondary school and sixth-form students and at those approaching the classics of Spanish literature for the first time.
