Description

Perder y ganar (1848) is an autobiographical novel written by John Henry Newman, a prominent figure in European religious and theological thought of the 19th century. Published shortly after his conversion to Catholicism, this work offers insight into Newman's personal journey through the character of Charles Reading.

The novel provides a vivid portrayal of Oxford University's academic world during its time, with all its peculiarities, controversies, and colorful characters. The writing is characterized by its enchanting language, surprising lyricism, and satirical tone, while also demonstrating rigorous intellectual rigor. This moving story of conversion remains deeply affecting for readers.

A newly translated edition features comprehensive explanatory notes that enhance the novel's accessibility to Spanish-speaking readers.
