Written in 1936, 'Mefisto' is one of the first novels to address the reality of the Third Reich with starkness. The plot follows the life of an actor who sacrifices his moral integrity to achieve success in Nazi Germany. The novel criticizes the complicity and silence of German society in the face of the rise of Nazism. First published in Germany in 1956, it generated controversy and was the subject of legal proceedings, even being banned for a time. This edition by Debolsillo, belonging to the Contemporánea collection, offers an essential reading to understand a dark period in history.
