Description
Ten brilliant stories full of imagination, desire and humor.
Summary of Light Sabbath Debaucheries:
Without a doubt, ligeros are less veiled and, above all, full of desire in the most carnal sense. Luis G. Berlanga has described them as erecting—or rather, lubricating—and the reader will be able to confirm this with such succulent stories as "Pincho moruno" or "Pascualino y los globos"; discover also the infinite possibilities offered by gastronomy with "A Surprising Woman" or, in short, confirm your usual suspicions about the relationship that united Dr. Watson and Sherlock Holmes in "Two Unforgettable Partners" with the eroticism of logic.
