Description
Gabriel Francisco Miro Ferrer was born in Alicante in 1879. His early life and education shaped his writing, which often explored themes of innocence and struggle. Miro's novel, The Leper Bishop, tells the story of a boy sent to a Jesuit school where an extremist version of Catholicism is enforced. As he navigates this environment, Pablo faces challenges that test his understanding of good and evil. This edition brings Miro's work to a wider audience, featuring the Spanish text alongside facing-page translation, introduction, and notes.
