«El villorrio» is the novel by William Faulkner, published by RBA in paperback (448 pages, in Spanish).
The novel begins with the arrival of the Snopes in a village near Jefferson, a family preceded by rumours of vendettas. Little by little they take over the town while the neighbours helplessly watch their rise, in a fable about the American South and the weight of destiny on people.
First part of the «Trilogía de los Snopes», completed by «La ciudad» and «La mansión»; the work was originally published as «The Hamlet» in 1940.
For readers of twentieth-century American literary classics and Southern Gothic narrative.
