Overview

Aventuras, acción y picaresca en una espléndida novela histórica ambientada en la Sevilla del siglo XVII.

«Echanove recrea la Sevilla del siglo XVII con todo detalle y la convierte en escenario de una aventura que sabe a clásico y recuerda a Oliver Twist». -Félix J. Palma

Desde que se quedó huérfano, el Lagartija malvive en el barrio de Triana junto con el Manco, poco mayor que él, y dos hermanos gemelos. Cada día se adentran en los callejones atestados de gente buscando monedas perdidas o algún mendrugo de pan, hasta que la fatalidad obliga a la cuadrilla de amigos a separarse.

A partir de ese momento, el Lagartija tendrá que enfrentarse en solitario a las inclemencias del destino y andarse con sumo cuidado, sobre todo cuando aparezca en su vida Hendrick van Belle, un mercader flamenco involucrado en turbios negocios que lo embaucará para que sea su aprendiz. Solo dejando atrás la inocencia y armándose de valor y astucia, este joven pícaro podrá sobrevivir en un mundo de violencia, corrupción y ambición desmedida.

Con la excelencia de los grandes maestros del género histórico, Jon Echanove nos traslada a través de los ojos de un niño a una Sevilla deslumbrante y hermosa, pero también sumamente despiadada.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION


Adventure, action and picaresque elements combine in this splendid historical novel set in seventeenth-century Seville.

“Echanove recreates 1600s Seville in all its detail in a classic adventure that recalls Oliver Twist.” -Félix J. Palma

El Lagartija is an orphan eking out a living in the district of Triana, where he teams up with El Manco, a slightly older friend, and a pair of twin brothers. Together, they roam the crowded streets, hunting for stray coins or a crust of bread, until fate causes them to split up.  
 
From that moment on, El Lagartija must face the hardships of everyday life alone, alert to danger on every side. This is especially true when he meets Hendrick van Belle, a shady Flemish trader who dupes him into being his apprentice. Only by leaving his innocence behind and drawing on every ounce of his courage and intelligence can the boy survive in a world of violence, corruption and unbridled ambition.
 
Like other masters of the picaresque novel, Echanove uses a child’s perspective to show us the beauty and majesty of Seville, as well as its dark and predatory side.
