«Un soñador para un pueblo» is a play by Spanish dramatist Antonio Buero Vallejo, published by Espasa in paperback (200 pages, in Spanish).
Set in 18th-century Madrid, the play recreates the Esquilache riot of 1766, when the people rise up against the modernising reforms of Charles III's minister. The political conflict intertwines with Esquilache's private life, as he faces the nobility, his wife and his maid: the clash between change and resistance.
Edition by Luis Iglesias Feijoo. Number 75 of the Austral Collection. Premiered on 18 December 1958 at the Teatro Español in Madrid.
Of interest to literature students, readers of Spanish theatre and fans of the classics.
