Man and Superman

More about the book

Set against the backdrop of the Sierra Nevada, the narrative unfolds around a group of men who embody the tension between societal expectations and personal autonomy. Observing the landscape, the characters—a mix of a possible Spaniard and a band of tramps—reflect on their existence, challenging the notion that social failures are merely drunks or weaklings. The author explores the complexities of class and the idea that some individuals resist conventional roles, suggesting that artistic sensibilities can exist outside traditional societal structures.
