«San Manuel Bueno, mártir» is the short novel by Miguel de Unamuno, published by Austral in paperback (176 pages, in Spanish).
The narrative focuses on don Manuel, a kind priest admired by his town, who hides an intimate unease about faith and the afterlife. Ángela Carballino, who knows him closely, reconstructs his figure and wonders about the meaning of belief and the comfort religion offers in the face of uncertainty.
The work was originally published in 1930. This Austral edition belongs to the Clásica collection and includes an introduction by Víctor García de la Concha and a reading guide by Óscar Barrero.
For students of Spanish literature and readers of classics interested in the Generation of '98 and questions about faith and doubt.
