Despues de varios intentos comprendi que el protagonista absoluto, sin mediacion de terceros, tenia que ser Onofre Bouvila, que este personaje energico, fantastico y canalla, con sus facetas oscuras y despiadadas, encarnaba mejor que nadie el espiritu de la Barcelona que yo queria representar. EDUARDO MENDOZA En el periodo comprendido entre las dos Exposiciones Universales de Barcelona de 1888 y 1929, con el telon de fondo de una ciudad tumultuosa, agitada y pintoresca, real y ficticia, asistimos a las andanzas de Onofre Bouvila, inmigrante pauperrimo, repartidor de propaganda anarquista y vendedor ambulante de crecepelo, y su ascension a la cima del poder financiero y delictivo. Mendoza nos propone un nuevo y singularisimo avatar de la novela picaresca y un brillante carrusel imaginativo de los mitos y fastos locales. Una fantasia satirica y ludica cuyo solido soporte realista inicial no excluye la fabulacion liberrima.
