«Se'n va un estrany» is the novel by Manuel de Pedrolo, published by Edicions 62 in paperback (234 pages, in Catalan).
Daniel Bastida, initiated by his mother into the black-market dealings of the postwar period, lets himself be dragged into increasingly open criminality. The novel presents him as a creature of a society that, under a conventional morality, obeys the law of the jungle; his selfishness and lack of solidarity will end up ruining him.
It belongs to the Temps Obert series, number 2, and to the El Balancí collection, number 85. This edition, the second, was published in 1973.
For readers of social novels and Catalan narrative interested in characters marked by postwar morality.
Manuel de Pedrolo i Molina was a Catalan author of novels, short stories, poetry and plays. He is mostly known for his sci-fi novel Mecanoscrit del segon origen.
