«La cabeza del dragón» is the play by Ramón del Valle-Inclán, published by Alborada Editorial in paperback (119 pages, in Spanish).
The farce uses humour to present a princess about to be devoured by a dragon and a prince who comes to her rescue. Beneath the guise of a fairy tale parade archetypal characters and allusions to the Spain of the era, traits of Valle-Inclán's style and of the Generation of '98.
The work was originally published in 1914 and included in the collection La locomotora (number 6).
Suitable for young readers and for anyone wishing to approach Valle-Inclán's theatre through a short story of adventure, humour and a fairy-tale ending.
Spanish playwright, novelist and poet, creator of the 'esperpento' style and author of Bohemian Lights and Tirano Banderas.
