«El reloj de maese Humphrey» is the short-story collection by Charles Dickens, published by Mondadori in paperback (155 pages, in Spanish).
Around the old clock of Master Humphrey, a kind old man gathers a group of characters who take turns telling stories; the clock case holds manuscripts that feed those narratives. Among the attendees are a deaf gentleman, a multifaceted individual, and a retired merchant, and the gathering is crossed by visits such as that of Mister Pickwick or Sam Weller and his father.
Originally published in 1841, this 1990 edition has an introduction by Santiago Rodríguez Santerbás and a translation by José Méndez Herrera.
