«La verdad sospechosa» is the stage comedy by Juan Ruiz de Alarcón, published by Libertarias Prodhufi in paperback (224 pages, in Spanish).
The play centres on don García, a young nobleman used to inventing stories and exaggerating the truth. His white lie gets tangled when he courts two ladies at once and must maintain a false identity, unleashing misunderstandings and comic situations. It is a comedy of intrigue from the Spanish Golden Age that reflects on honour, love and lies, with witty dialogue. Its prestige grew through its influence on authors such as Molière or Goldoni and its portrayal of settings in Spain and Spanish America.
This edition is part of the Clásicos collection, number 21, edited by Manuel Sito Alba. First edition published in 1999.
For readers of classic Spanish theatre and students of Golden Age literature.
