Narration During Books The Family of Pascual Duarte

For fans of Spanish miserablism set in a heartless deterministic universe (i.e. this one), Pascal Duarte is the brief novel for you. Duarte’s confession, written from prison, is a beautiful recounting of a life of violent poverty and aimless murder, told in simple and frequently moving prose. Cela’s work is often concerned with the seemingly endless human capacity for violence and conflict and this short work leaves a powerful imprint on the reader with its moments of hair-raising cruelty and almost unbearable tenderness.

Judge Regarding Books The Family of Pascual Duarte

This review first appeared in "Margin" which is an online literary publication focusing on magical realism edited by Tamara Kaye Sellman.IN CAMILO José Celas The Family of Pascual Duarte, people, plants, animals and other natural forces take on shimmering qualities when a murderous madman projects his imagination over a gray and barren landscape. His nameless and impoverished agrarian village is located, Pascual tells us, "some two leagues from Almendralejo, squatting athwart a road as empty and

I am rating this highly praised classic in the Spanish literature with just one star and if I could have, I'd given it 0. I am not basing my rating on its literary merit: the presumed originality, the social commentary value, the poverty and ignorance in rural Spain in the pre-war years, the Nobel prize, yada, yada,yada. I am just rating it so low because I hated it. So, yes. I have detested this book from beginning to end. It has been claimed as one of the best novels in the Spanish language,

This is a book to be read when youre grown up. Too hard to understand, too subtle to grasp when youre young. Even so I would recommend anyone to read it, keep it close, and read it again when he felts its ready to. Im quite sure that Im so fond of the story because Ive been able to assist first-hand the hardships of rural life. Not as harsh as this impoverished area of Spain, because the territory were the story takes place was a sad extreme example of backwardness and poverty.The novel takes

It's an interesting study into an unreliable narrator, but otherwise, not really my cup of tea.

some died themselves, rest of them got killed by pascual, and himself got executed, while he didn't want to die. He was a psychopath. Sad!

I am not, sir, a bad person, though in all truth I am not lacking in reason for being one. Pascual Duarte has done many things in his life. Some of them took him to prison not once but twice times. He's now under his second sentence and he's about to be executed. Thus, he wrote a diary in which he told his entire life and the people who influenced it.He killed many people. He states that at the beginning, so don't you worry about spoilers. Some in cold blood, some because of revenge, others
