«La Celestina» is Eduardo Alonso's adaptation of Fernando de Rojas's classic, published by Vicens Vives in paperback (256 pages, in Spanish).
Young Calisto, rejected by Melibea, turns to the matchmaker Celestina to win her over. Celestina's intervention unleashes a plot of passions, greed, and tragic fate. This version adapted by Eduardo Alonso brings the classic closer to young readers, with more agile language and illustrations by Francisco Solé and Fuencisla del Amo.
