«Los Grope» is Tom Sharpe's satirical novel, published by Editorial Anagrama in paperback (240 pages, in Spanish).
The story begins with Ursula Grope, a maid who takes in a deserting Viking, and turns the family into a fierce English matriarchy: the women dominate, kidnap the men and pass power from mother to daughter. At the start of the 21st century, shy Esmond Wiley arrives at Grope Hall and triggers an absurd satire with black humour.
Translation from English by Gemma Rovira. Belongs to the 2nd edition of Anagrama's Compactos collection.
A read for fans of black humour and British satire, as well as for followers of Tom Sharpe.
Thomas Ridley Sharpe was an English satirical novelist, best known for his Wilt series, as well as Porterhouse Blue and Blott on the Landscape, all three of which were adapted for television.
