About the author

Spanish poet and writer José Augusto Trinidad Martínez Ruíz wrote most of his literary works under the pseudonym Azorín.

The eldest of nine brothers, he studied law at the University of Valencia, then worked as a journalist in Madrid. He later emigrated to Paris.

He also wrote under the names Fray José
(in "The Catholic Education of Petrer") and and Juan of Lily (in "The Defender of Yecla").

He was an anarchist in his youth, but grew more conservative as he aged and supported Franco when the General came to power in Spain (although the author remained in France).

Azorín, llevo tres años defendiéndote a capa y espada... y me escribes esta mierda???

[Capítulo IV]

"El cambio de Don Juan que elabora Azorín se anuncia ya en el prólogo: «Don Juan del Prado y Ramos no llegó a morir; pero su espíritu salió de la grave enfermedad profundamente transformado». Esta metamorfosis, además de redimirle, le acerca al resto de los hombres. No es el héroe imposible que antaño atropellaba la ley y la moral, no es el Don Juan del barroco ni tan siquiera el de Zorrilla. No es el Don Juan del teatro".
