Vicente Blasco Ibáñez was a Spanish realist novelist whose own life was as dramatic as any fictional narrative. A fervent republican activist in his youth, he founded a controversial newspaper that led to numerous legal battles and even physical danger. His writing, deeply influenced by literary giants, explored pressing social issues and reflected his profound connection to Spanish culture and history. Ibáñez brought a distinctive, energetic voice to Spanish literature, often tackling themes of social injustice and the human condition with unflinching realism.

Del prólogo de Rosa María Rodríguez Magda: «Este no es un libro de viajes escrito por un novelista, pero es un libro de viajes escrito por un novelista. Y aunque parezca un acertijo lógico, comprender en qué sentido lo es y no lo es nos dará la clave del texto. No nos encontramos ante el ocio de un literato que se dispone a hacer una peregrinación estetizante al estilo de Goethe o Stendhal; no obstante, es un recorrido de ciudades emblemáticas, y su autor impregna las páginas de reconstrucciones narrativas y descripciones brillantes, como solo puede hacerlo quien ejerce su oficio con soltura. Blasco, además, se enfrenta a este deambular inesperado desde la tensión vivencial y política que envuelve sus afanes en esos momentos, por lo que mira, observa y relata a partir de sus inquietudes sociales. (…) »Génova, Milán, Turín, Pisa, Roma, el Vaticano, Nápoles, Pompeya, Asís, Florencia, Venecia. El recorrido no se aleja del de un turista convencional, pero la mirada propia, no ahogada por el talante divulgativo de la obra, le lleva de las descripciones certeras, a la recreación histórica, del análisis de las gentes a la soflama republicana, todo ello en una fluida prosa literaria que únicamente en cierta grandilocuencia acusa el paso de los años».
