About This Book

La colección reúne relatos breves que mezclan anécdota popular, leyenda y crónica histórica para evocar personajes y sucesos del pasado peruano. Cada tradición combina humor irónico, costumbrismo y erudición ligera para trazar retratos de instituciones, hábitos y tipos sociales. El tono alterna entre la sátira y la nostalgia, usando el detalle pintoresco y la voz del pueblo para convertir incidentes cotidianos en pequeñas moralejas y curiosidades históricas.
