Book Description:
Arnold Bennett escribió Enterrado en vida después de su obra más conocida y seria, Cuento de viejas, y siempre la consideró como su novela más delirantemente divertida. Defensor del realismo y crítico con las novelas sensacionalistas decimonónicas, Enterrado en vida no deja de tener ciertas características de estas últimas como un travieso y satírico guiño al lector avisado. Sin embargo, es la extraordinaria prosa de Bennett la que consigue que cualquier lector olvide el mundo que le rodea y, sin ningún esfuerzo, se encuentre paseando por el Londres de 1908 con el singular señor Priam Farll. Bennett convierte un simple paseo por High Street, una conversación con el estanquero, o una merienda en un salón de té, en escenas tan nítidas y reales, tan coloristas, que lo cotidiano se vuelve extraordinario.
