Book Synopsis



Tesoros de la Hispanidad

"Cada mes depositaba en el Banco mismo en que prestaba sus servicios el fruto de su ahorro mensual. Y era ahorrativo, lo mismo que en dinero, en trabajo, en salud, en pensamiento y en afecto".

Un pobre hombre rico o El sentimiento cómico de la vida cierra el ciclo de Amor y Pedagogía y Niebla, coincidentemente en los últimos años de vida de Miguel de Unamuno (España, 1864-1936). Desde esta perspectiva, Unamuno vuelve a abordar, con humor y guiñadas al lector, la trayectoria del ser humano y la necesidad de forjar relaciones significativas para alcanzar la felicidad. En mundo en el que nos usamos los unos a los otros, es difícil distinguir si la felicidad se encuentra en el amor romántico o en la cínica dependencia de la convivencia matrimonial.

Por casas de pensiones, bares y calles de la gran ciudad, seguimos el periplo existencial de Emeterio, un ahorrativo empleado bancario que duda entre entregarse al amor de Rosita o alejarse de todo compromiso y llevar una vida dedicada a incrementar su capital. ¿Podrán más el voyerismo y el temor a la intimidad que la necesidad de entregarse al amor y formar familia?

Publicada en 1933 con San Manuel Bueno, mártir, La novela de Don Sandalio y Una historia de amor, Un pobre hombre rico o el sentimiento cómico de la vida explora el sentido de la realidad y los diferentes senderos que se abren en la existencia humana.

Heir of Søren Kierkegaard and a precursor of continental existentialism, Miguel de Unamuno (Spain, 1864-1936) is one of the main European philosophers of the 20th century, and an outstanding Generation of '98 author.

A hard-working bank employee, Emeterio is amassing a small fortune, but has a hard time finding love, or even accepting that he might need it. As he ponders his love for Rosita, we will follow him about boarding houses, outskirt bars and the streets of Madrid, as he watches couples from a distance, in search of an intimacy that he has not been able to achieve.

Un pobre hombre rico o el sentimiento cómico de la vida (1933), is one of Miguel de Unamuno's last novels and a Spanish classic. It is also the last book in the Amor y Pedagogía and Niebla saga, and revolves around the same concepts: destiny, family and love. This book features witty dialogs and humorous situations, and Unamuno's clear prose is accessible to people who have an advanced command of Spanish.
