«Tirano Banderas» is the novel by Ramón del Valle-Inclán published by Derrama Magisterial / El Comercio in hardback, with 195 pages, in Spanish.
The novel recreates an imaginary country on the Spanish American coast where the dictator Santos Banderas exercises arbitrary power. With a fragmentary structure, language laden with Americanisms and an esperpento aesthetic, Valle-Inclán builds a ferocious caricature of authoritarianism and human degradation under oppressive regimes.

Recommended for readers of classics of Spanish-language literature and of the esperpento, with an interest in the critique of power.
