Vielleicht aktueller denn je. Die über 200 Jahre alte Geschichte in der ein junger Mann einem "Bot" verfällt.
No por nada es un referente de la literatura universal. El lenguaje, las reacciones extremas de los personajes, la mezcla de lo trágico y lo cómico entre tantísimos otros detalles hacen de esta obra una parada obligatoria para quien tenga un poco de curiosidad por los clásicos.
