The Swindler And Lazarillo De Tormes: Two Spanish Picaresque Novels

The heroes of the Spanish novels make their way through a seamy underworld populated by unsavoury beggars, corrupt priests, eccentrics, whores and criminals. Lazarillo de Tormes and Pablos the swindler are determined to attain the trappings of the gentleman, but have little time for the gentlemanly ideals of religion, justice, honour and nobility.
