Overview

Fiel a su perspectiva frente a la sociedad, manchada por las dificultades económicas, las injusticias y los fracasos vividos, Roberto Arlt vuelve a atacar la frialdad de una sociedad depredadora y explotadora, en la que el crimen como lo conocemos no es más que la hermana gemela de la ley, que traídas a la vida por el mismo cuerpo, intercalan sus papeles constantemente en pro de su propia diversión. En esta ocasión sin embargo, los personajes van más allá de su contexto, reconocen su posición espiritual y buscan un renacer violento pero efectivo, como si se hablara del nacimiento de un nuevo universo. Por lo que de cierta forma estas páginas no son solo una crítica a los extremos vividos en la Argentina de principios del siglo XX, sino que de cierta forma también es una propuesta, una invitación para buscar acabar de raíz una epidemia social, espiritual y económica que desde hace varios siglos ya, se halla fuera de control.

About the Author

Roberto Arlt was an Argentine writer born Roberto Godofredo Christophersen Arlt in Buenos Aires on April 2, 1900. His parents were both immigrants: his father Karl Arlt was a Prussian from Posen (now Poznan in present-day Poland) and his mother was Ekatherine Iobstraibitzer, a native of Trieste and Italian speaking. German was the language commonly used at their home. His relationship with his father was stressful, as Karl Arlt was a very severe and austere man, by Arlt's own account. The memory of his oppressive father would appear in several of his writings. For example, Remo Erdosain (a character at least partially based on Arlt's own life) often recalls his abusive father and how little if any support he would give him. After being expelled from school at the age of eight, Arlt became an autodidact and worked at all sorts of different odd jobs before landing a job on at a local newspaper: as clerk at a bookstore, apprentice to a tinsmith, painter, mechanic, welder, manager in a brick factory, and dock worker.
