About this listen

El dilema moral del mandarin. El viejo dilema de si una persona, ocasionando la muerte de alguien que no conoce consigue toda la riqueza y el poder es la historia de El Mandarin del portugues Jose Maria Eca de Queiroz (1845-1900). En ella un pobre empleadillo al tocar una campana hace que muera un lejano mandarin en China y hereda sus riquezas. Pero la obsesion de haber sido la causa de la muerte de un inocente embarga al ahora poderoso protagonista y el resto de la historia cuenta sus intentos de rehabilitacion. Es una fantasia ironica que es considerada una de las grandes novelas del ilustre escritor, ya que tiene vigencia permanente.

The old dilemma that if a person, by causing the death of someone that he doesn't know, can get wealth and power, will do it, is the story of this brilliant novel by the Portuguese writer Eca de Queiroz.
