Resumen
Los Caminos del Mundo is the first volume of the trilogy Las Memorias de un Hombre de Acción, in which Pío Baroja blends fiction and historical reflection through the eyes of Eugenio de Avinareta, a free-thinking, restless young man living in 19th-century Spain.
In this novel, Eugenio begins his journey across a fragmented and convulsive world, shaped by wars, revolutions, and shifting ideologies.
As he travels through different regions and social circles, he confronts hypocrisy, power struggles, and existential questions about freedom, justice, and the purpose of life.
With Baroja’s characteristic clarity and skepticism, Los Caminos del Mundo is a compelling tale of intellectual awakening and the search for truth in an uncertain age.
