César Sánchez Beras (annual prizewinner for poetry, theater, and children's literature) delights us with this work that confronts the reader with eight texts he calls "short dramaturgy." With masterful command of the genre, the author unravels the scenes and reconfigures anecdotes, situations, stereotypes, and, ultimately, the very humanity of this handful of characters, familiar and vivid, stripped bare by the unstoppable power of a unique, aggressive, ambitious... brilliant talent.
