Summary: "La horda" by Vicente Blasco Ibáñez is a novel written in the early 20th century. This work delves into themes of poverty, survival, and the harsh realities of urban life in Spain during that era. The story seems to follow Isidro Maltrana, a young man struggling with the complexities of life, social class, and his aspirations amidst the backdrop of a city bustling with the hurried movements of laborers and vendors. At the start of the novel, the scene is set in the early hours of the morning at a bustling marketplace in Madrid, where carts laden with wares arrive in the rain. The vivid descriptions introduce various characters, including the weary muleteers seeking to sell their goods and the young reporter Isidro Maltrana. As the daybreak reveals the city, we catch a glimpse of the struggles of the working class, their interactions, and the sense of urgency surrounding their daily activities. Maltrana is depicted as a thoughtful but impoverished youth, caught between his simplifying existence and the higher ideals he yearns to pursue. The opening captures the vibrancy and despair of life in an industrializing society, foreshadowing the depth of social commentary that will unfold in the book.
