An original, fresh new voice from France telling a devastating tale about the pretensions of the Spanish bourgeoisie within a satirical allegory of France-era Spanish society. Maria de los Milagros, known as Milagrosa, is the daughter of a domineering mother who terrorizes the family with simulated hysterical fits; exploits everyone around her; and for whom her daughter is only an adjunct to her social status. Coddled, repressed, suffocated, Milagrosa never grows to independent womanhood, never manages to cut the psychological umbilical cord. This portrait of a monstrous tyrant is both splendidly ironic and vividly humorous; Milagrosa's mother dies at the same time as the Generalissimo. The translation is by the award-winning Dr. Mike Mitchell.
