«Luces de Bohemia» is the theatrical esperpento by Ramón del Valle-Inclán, published by Espasa Calpe in paperback (285 pages, in Spanish).
Max Estrella, a blind and bohemian poet, traverses the most sordid Madrid over two days accompanied by Latino and other nocturnal characters. The action portrays with grotesque humour and satirical tone the literary and social life of the era, and his distorted view of reality gives shape to the esperpento.
Written in 1920. This edition from the Austral Collection (Theatre series, no. 1) features editing by Alonso Zamora Vicente and an appendix and glossary by Joaquín del Valle-Inclán.
Common reading in schools and universities, aimed at literature students and those who enjoy classic 20th-century Spanish theatre.
Spanish playwright, novelist and poet, creator of the 'esperpento' style and author of Bohemian Lights and Tirano Banderas.
