«Tartarín de Tarascón» is the adventure novel by Alphonse Daudet, published by Ediciones Gaviota in paperback (264 pages, in Spanish).
Tartarín is an inhabitant of Tarascón with an overflowing imagination: boastful, exaggerated, and the owner of stories he has not lived. His southern character, between the heroic and the ridiculous, has been compared to a double Cervantine nature. The novel follows his comic adventures and his contradictions between fantasy and reality.
First installment of the Tartarín series. The original work dates from 1872; this 1984 edition includes the translation by Úrsula R. Hesles.
Classic of youth literature, suitable for readers aged 12 and up and for those seeking humor and satire of adventure.
Louis Marie Alphonse Daudet was a French novelist. He was the husband of Julia Daudet and father of Edmée, Léon and Lucien Daudet.
