Falling somewhere between the genres of memoir and novel, Lavengro has long been considered a classic of 19th-century English literature. According to the author lav-engro is a Romany word meaning "word master". The historian G.M. Trevelyan called this "a book that breathes the spirit of that period of strong and eccentric characters".Its protagonist, whose name is never mentioned, is born the son of an officer in a militia regiment and is brought up in various barrack towns in England, Scotland and Ireland. After serving an apprenticeship to a lawyer he moves to London and becomes a Grub Street hack, an occupation which gives him ample opportunities to observe London low-life. Finally he takes to the road as a tinker. At various points through the book he associates with Romany travellers, of whom he gives memorable and generally sympathetic pen-portraits. Lavengro was followed by a sequel, The Romany Rye. Neither of the two books is self-contained. Rather, Lavengro ends abruptly with chapter 100, and carries on directly in the The Romany Rye. Thus both need to be read together, in order.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. BZ0 - A paperback book in very good condition that has some bumped corners, small tear on the bottom left corner of the spine, lightly curled, some light stains on the page edges, light discloration and shelf wear. Text in Spanish. 9.5"x6.75", 381 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. Con estas palabras, entre otras, presenta Manuel Azaña en su "Nota preliminar" la obra de G. Borrow:"Borrow se colocó, o colocó a su héroe, en un escenario sin segundo, de tal fuerza que, para nuestro gusto, el aventurero se borra, se disuelve en el paisaje, o queda a la zaga de la muchedumbre española que suscita. Es difícil encontrar otro caso en que un escritor haya triunfado con más brillantez de la hostil realidad presente. Borrow lucha a brazo partido con la realidad española, la asedia, poco a poco la domina, y con la lentitud peculiar de su procedimiento acaba por poner en pie una España rebosante de vida. No se atuvo a una realidad de "guía oficial". Lo que le importaba era el carácter de los hombres, y no de todos, sino los de la clase popular, donde los rasgos nacionales se conservan más puros. Labradores, arrieros, posaderos, gitanos, curas de aldea, monterillas, mendigos, pastores, pasan ante nosotros, y al verlos gesticular y oírlos hablar, creemos encontrarnos con antiguos conocidos. Unos son pícaros, otros santos; unos son listos, otros muy zotes; casi todos groseros, muchos con sentimientos nobles, pero unidos en general por un aire de familia inconfundible; y la verdad es que, con todas sus picardías o su zafiedad, no puede uno dejar de quererlos. Tuvo además Borrow una espléndida visión del campo, y lo sintió e interpretó de un modo enteramente moderno. Así, don Jorge descubrió y pintó, en realidad, lo que quedaba de España. Arrancados los árboles, agostado el césped, arrastrada en mucha parte la tierra vegetal, asomaba la armazón de roca, con toda su fealdad y su inconmovible firmeza. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
