A little about the story
A collection of Spanish folk and fairy tales full of tricksters, enchanted princesses, talking animals and wonderful mishaps. One hero is a former bull-ring attendant nicknamed Pinchauvas who blunders into a magic house; another is a bird that finds itself tied by the neck, wings and feet.
The tales have a dry humour and a cheerful earthiness that set them apart from the more familiar German and French collections.
