A dramatic masterpiece of Spanish realism.<\/p>

Valencia, around 1900. Old fisherman Paloma cannot understand why his son Tono wants to create his own piece of land with his bare hands. While Tono’s adopted daughter supports him, Tonet, the youngest of the Paloma family, shuns all work. Instead, he seeks his fortune with Neleta, his childhood sweetheart, who is now married to the richest man in the village.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Vicente Blasco Ib\u00e1\u00f1ez was born in Valencia in 1867 and died in Menton, France, in 1928.<\/p>

The Spanish writer, journalist, and Republican Party politician led an adventurous life and was exiled to France for a time.<\/p>

Through his newspaper, El Pueblo, and his novels, he addressed social and political injustices. His descriptions of landscapes, work, everyday life, and traditions are realistic yet poetic. His view of human beings as a mixture of heredity, environmental factors, and social circumstances is modern. Many of his novels, including Blood and Sand, Under the Orange Trees, and The Apocalyptic Horsemen, have been adapted into films.. <\/p>

His dramatic novel Reeds and Mud is considered his masterpiece. Set at the end of the nineteenth century near Valencia, it tells the ultimately tragic story of the oldest fishing family on Lake Albufeira. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
