About This Book

La obra reúne una serie de breves tradiciones que combinan historia documentada y libre invención para evocar episodios, personajes y costumbres del pasado colonial y urbano. Cada texto alterna ironía y piedad, anécdota y lirismo, transformando fragmentos de crónicas y recuerdos en retablos humorísticos y emotivos. Las piezas varían en tono y extensión, entre sátira, nostalgia y leyenda, y se acompañan de reflexiones autobiográficas del autor que perfilan su trayectoria y relación con las fuentes que inspiran las narraciones.
