| Summary | "Tipos trashumantes: cróquis á pluma" by José María de Pereda is a collection of character sketches written in the late 19th century. The work explores various social types, primarily focusing on the diverse visitors to the coastal town of Santander during the summer months and their interactions with both the local populace and each other. Pereda dives into the contrasts between the wealthy holidaymakers and the indigenous residents, providing a vivid portrayal of their behaviors, customs, and evolving dynamics. The opening portion of this sketch collection introduces several characters who come to Santander for their summer retreats. The narrative begins with a satirical note on the influx of vacationers who alter the town's atmosphere, making it a bustling hub of eccentric personalities. Among those portrayed are the wealthy Cascajares family, struggling to fit into high society, and the hapless Becerril family, seeking health cures through seaside baths. Pereda illustrates their experiences and impressions upon arrival, showcasing the differences between the social classes and hinting at the appraisals and judgments these characters make about one another. The author’s keen observations and humorous style offer a rich and relatable commentary on life, providing readers an engaging look at the quirks and foibles of various social types.
