The work presents the conflict between free will and destiny through the story of Segismundo, a prince imprisoned from birth due to a supposed omen. His temporary release and the treatment he receives lead him to question the boundary between dream and reality, in a constant plea for freedom and the responsibility of choosing one's own path. The edition includes an introduction, lexical notes, and reading guidance by Ana Suárez Miramón, designed for a first approach to the text.
It belongs to number 2 of the Biblioteca Didáctica Anaya collection and is illustrated by Hernán Valdovinos.
