«Mi idolatrado hijo Sisí» is the moral satire novel by Miguel Delibes, published by Destino in paperback (334 pages, in Spanish).
Cecilio Rubes, a forty-something bathtub manufacturer, selfish and superficial, only wants his son Sisí to be happy: he doesn't care if he keeps bad company or drops out of school. In contrast to his carefree attitude, the Sendíns represent the discipline of the conservative middle class. The novel is a moral satire that addresses Malthusianism.
Originally published in 1953, this 1976 edition is part of the Destinolibro collection, number 31.
