Divinas palabras : Tragicomedia de aldea by Ramón del Valle-Inclán
"Divinas palabras: Tragicomedia de aldea" by Ramón del Valle-Inclán is a tragicomedy written in the early 20th century. Set in a rural village, the play follows the family of Pedro Gailo, a sacristan, whose sister dies leaving behind a hydrocephalic dwarf child. The family exploits the disabled boy at fairs for money, sparking bitter disputes. When Pedro's wife Mari Gaila runs off with her lover, tragedy strikes as a drunken mob kills
the child, unleashing dramatic consequences in this grotesque yet universal work. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
